  • Descrição: Early Khmer societies developed extensive settlement complexes that were largely made of non-durable materials. These fragile urban areas perished many centuries ago, and thus a century and a half of scholarly research has focussed on the more durable components of Khmer culture, in particular the famous temples and the texts and works of art that are normally found within them. In recent years however there has been a considerable effort to broaden the perspective beyond conventional approaches to Khmer history and archaeology. Remarkable advances have been made in the domain of remote sensing and archaeological mapping, including the application of advanced geospatial techniques such as airborne laser scanning within studies of heritage landscapes at Angkor and beyond. This article describes the most recent applications of the technology in Cambodia, including the results of a newly-completed campaign of airborne laser scanning in 2015—the most extensive acquisition ever undertaken by an archaeological project—and underscores the importance of using these methods as part of a problem-oriented research program that speaks to broader issues within history and archaeology. •Most extensive archaeological lidar acquisition ever completed worldwide.•Unique archive of human-environment interactions inscribed into the landscape.•Previously-undocumented cities mapped beneath vegetation using airborne lidar.•Angkor-era engineered landscapes revealed on the periphery of the empire.•New insights into the rise and fall of early urban centres in monsoon Asia & beyond.
