This Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Office of Digital Humanities (CFDA 45.169) provides $348,190 to Vanderbilt University over a three-year period from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026. The project, titled "GEOPACHA 2.0: LARGE-SCALE ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMAGERY SURVEY THROUGH HUMAN-MACHINE TEAMING," will revise Vanderbilt's existing web application "GEOPACHA: Geospatial Platform for Andean Culture, History, and Archaeology" to enable AI-assisted archaeological imagery survey and refine deep learning models for detecting archaeological features. Vanderbilt and its network of regional experts and students will then conduct an autonomous satellite imagery survey across the Central Andes, leveraging the human-machine teaming approach to produce the largest archaeological imagery survey in the Western Hemisphere. This project builds upon Vanderbilt's previous NEH-sponsored work using digital methods to document archaeological landscapes at a regional scale.
