Outline of Final Research Achievements |
LiDAR data was performed at the Angkor Archaeological Park in Cambodia in April 2012.Using these data a high-resolution red relief image map (RRIM) was created of areas inside and outside the moated royal capital of Angkor Thom. The land around Angkor Thom is extensively covered by tropical jungle. The RRIM provides a new visualization method of localizing, minute topographical changes in regions with large undulations over a wide area.The RRIM expanded the investigation and revealed the existence of many ponds outside the royal capital indicating that a residential community had flourished outside the moat-surrounded capital city. This study will be elucidate the functional aspects of the water channel network and ponds that utilized the gentle gradient of the natural land to overcome the climatic induced environmental changes that are characterized by an extreme divide between the rainy and dry seasons.
