On September 21, 2013, Prof. Douglas Comer, Co-president of the International Committee on Archaeological Heritage Management (ICAHM) of International Council on Monuments and Sites(ICOMOS) paid a visit to the International Centre on Space Technologies for Natural and Cultural Heritage (HIST) under the Auspices of UNESCO which was built on the premises of RADI.

In the meeting, RADI researchers introduced the progress of archaeology research in china using remote sensing technology and the recent discoveries of “Silk Road” by remote sensing and field work. Prof. Comer made a presentation on the frontier technology of remote sensing archaeology.

This visit laid a good foundation for the cooperation between HIST and ICAHM/ICOMOS in the future.
