Abstract This article reports the results of using a sector‐scan sonar to record diverse submerged archaeological sites in shallow and deep water. The Kongsberg MS1000 sector‐scan sonar was developed for commercial applications, typically underwater inspections of bridges, dams, ports and harbours. The ability of the device to rapidly generate high‐quality, geometrically accurate scans of submerged features, coupled with its ease of use and deployment make it a potentially important, yet largely overlooked, tool for survey and management of underwater archaeological sites. As one of several technologies available, the paper examines its advantages and limitations, and considers, through case studies, under which conditions it is most effectively deployed. 抽象 扇扫声纳在水下考古遗址调查和管理中的应用 本文报道了扇扫声纳记录的几个不同深度的水下考古遗址的结果。Kongsberg MS1000扇扫声纳最初被设计-为商业用途, 主要用于探测水下桥梁、堤坝、港口和码头等。该设备能够快速生成高质量、几何准确的水下特征扫描图像, 加上它易于操作和部署的特点使其成为水下考古遗址调查和管理潜在的重要工具, 然而这在很大程度上却没用引起足够的重视。作为可用的几种技术之一, 本文考察了它的优点与局限性, 并通过案例研究来考虑此设备在哪些条件下可做最有效的部署。 关键词:扇扫声纳, 水下-产, 考古调查 扇掃聲納在水下考古遺址調查和管理中的應用 本文報道了扇掃聲納記錄的幾個不同深度的水下考古遺址的結果。Kongsberg MS1000扇掃聲納最初被設-作爲商業用途, 主要用于探測水下橋梁、堤壩、港口和碼頭等。該設備能夠快速生成高質量、幾何准確的水下特征掃描圖像, 加上它易于操作和部署的特點使其成爲水下考古遺址調查和管理潛在的重要工具, 然而這在很大程度上卻沒用引起足夠的重視。作爲可用的幾種技術-一, 本文考察了它的優點與局限性, 並-過案例研究來考慮此設備在哪些條件下可做最有效的部署。 關-詞:扇掃聲納, 水下遺産, 考古調查
