At the beginning of April 2016, we had a thread here about "There may be ruins of a second Viking settlement in North America." It mentioned that Professor Sarah Parcak had been referred to as a "space archaeologist" because she used satellite imagery to find the possible ruins.
An article yesterday describes laser imaging being used to map the Guatemalan jungle and discover new detail about Mayan ruins. Though not involved in that project, Professor Parcak did offer a comment:
Laser archaeologists! ("And that is to have archaeologists with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!")
