Listening to Dan Snow's History Hit Podcast this morning I heard Dr. Sarah Parcak, 2016's TED prize winner, talking about her most recent project which she started with TED funding. GlobalXplorer is asking the crowd to help archaeologists identify historical sites and places where looting could be happening using satellite imagery.
To start with they are focusing on Peru but hope to expand this worldwide and allow anyone to log on for a couple of minutes and help the global effort to preserve our history and discover more about previous generations.
