On 17th of May 2013 the workshop with presentations on the long-distance aerial survey in archaeology, its methods and options took place in the premises of the Institute of Archaeology in Nitra. International cooperation and exchange of experience in this field has a long tradition. Aerial archaeology, this one of the most important prospection methods, achieves currently an unprecedented progress in connection with the development of techniques and technology. The seminar program reflected diversity and various options of the aerial prospection with regard to the used data collection devices and evaluation options. The seminar was held under the auspices of the currently ongoing project CULTURE – Archaeo - Landscapes in which also the working group of the Institute of Archaeology in Nitra is included.

Aerial archaeology, one of the important non-destructive methods of prospection, has recently achieved an unprecedented progress in Europe, also in connection with the development of techniques and technologies. It includes complexes of diverse techniques and solutions in the investigation, discoveries and reconstructions of archaeological landscape. Satellite images, aerial photography for orthophotomaps, LIDAR and oblique aerial photographs made from small heights; all these methods have their advantages, and their combinations are an ideal source for the creation of archaeological landscape. Slovakia has joined the cooperation at the time when aerial prospection began to be implemented as a systematic prospection in the Institute of Archaeology of SAS in Nitra. Despite many technical limitations associated with the applicable regulations and legislation at that time, it can be said that the cooperation has been under way since 1987. The years 1997 – 1998 saw the first project supported by the EU under the programme RAPHAEL – Treasures of our common past in Europe – history written in earth. A common traveling exhibition realized in several countries (United Kingdom, Germany, Czech Republic and Hungary) was successfully presented also in several cities in Slovakia (Bratislava, Nitra, Liptovský Mikuláš, Komárno). As one of 19 institutions from 12 countries, we participated in international cooperation again in the years 2000 – 2007 under the program CULTURE 2000. The currently implemented project – within the program CULTURE – ArchaeoLanscapes – started in 2010 and will run until September 2015. The participation of the Institute of Archaeology of the SAS in Nitra in the project is through the prospection of Žitný ostrov, the largest river island in Central Europe.

The analysis of freely accessible orthophotos (remote sensing: satellite and airborne imagery/aerial photography) is of great significance in archaeological practice. In an important area of the lower reaches of the Morava River (Záhorie, Weinviertel), we found a triple trapezoidal enclosure and an outer double ditch near the village Marchegg, an arc-shaped ditch at Vysoká pri Morave, a Roman military camp near Bernhardsthal, spatially arranged ground plans at Angern an der March, a quadrangular ditch with five rows of rectangular features at Suchohrad, then the corner of a quadruple ditch enclosure (?) and another ditch with the corner (?) near Stupava or multiple circular or oval fortifications near Brodské and Drösing etc.

This paper discusses the results of the aerial archaeological research of Early Iron Age settlements in Northern Transdanubia. The eastern, mountainous area is more difficult to explore, thus we can only talk about some aspects of the detailed research of two fortified settlements (Süttő, Százhalombatta). By comparison, detailed photomaps were made of the settlements in the western part, where cropmarks help in identifying archaeological sites. Intensive excavation activities have been conducted for three decades in the flat NW region, which is split between three countries and dominated by the river Danube and its tributaries. Several studies covered the topic of Early Iron Age settlements in this area and the topographical knowledge gained from the researches helps in interpreting the information from the aerial photographs.
