[Fwd: [crm-sig] ISO21127]

[Benjamin Ducke]

Scientific aspects of CRM:
- statistical risk analysis an optimization of sampling strategies
- predictive modelling
- erosion and land use modelling with respect to site preservation
- computer based decision support systems
- find preservation, proveniance assessment (fraud detection) and
scientific dating
- automated airphoto analysis
- ...

I have seen it all to some degree in different CRM offices.
It just depends on how the local authorities run it ...
