Possibilities of Using Aerial Photoes in Preparations of Archaeological Excavations - Maritime Villas on Eastern Adriatic Coast

The integral land area of maritime villas on eastern Adriatic coast has not been determined so far. The maritime villas were certainly in the category of luxury Roman villas and they have been situated on the promontories and bays with the most beautifull views to the sea. The area of the villas territory are partially known from limited excavations. Because the whole complexes cannot be arcaeologically explored at the moment other methods of research have to be used as preliminary to classical archaeological excavations. By using of aerial photoes we can determined the extension of the architecture, specially under the sea level. Aerial photoes were analysed by means of computer processing by the method of linear histogram modifications. These explorations indicated that more extensive building complexes on the all sites. The best resultates should be in combination those methode with geophysical research, including electromagnetic detection of the sites.
