About

Francesco Boschin is a leading figure in the application of geomatics and remote sensing technologies to cultural heritage preservation and geoarchaeology. His research primarily focuses on using advanced surveying methods—including SLAM-based LiDAR and Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)—to evaluate rock slope stability and geological hazards at critical Paleolithic sites. In his highly cited 2024 study on the Grotta Paglicci site in Italy, Boschin demonstrated how these technologies can assess structural risks to caves containing invaluable archaeological and anthropological remains, spanning multiple Paleolithic periods. This work, already garnering 8 citations, showcases his ability to bridge engineering geomatics with archaeological conservation. By providing precise, non-invasive hazard assessments, Boschin’s contributions directly support the long-term protection of irreplaceable cultural heritage, including faunal remains and lithic artifacts. His innovative approach sets a new standard for integrating modern surveying tools into archaeological site management, making his research essential for scholars working at the intersection of geoscience, engineering, and heritage preservation.
