Smith Degree: Master of Ar ts Title: Analysis of the Efficacy of LiDAR Data as a Tool for Archaeological Prospection at the Highland Valley Copper Mine Committee: Chair: John Welch Professor , Archaeology David Burley Supervisor Professor, Archaeology Kristin Safi Committee Member Senior Archaeologist Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions Travis Freeland Examiner Project Manager Kleanza Consulting Ltd. ii Abstract As heritage resource management and Indigenous heritage stewardship moves into the forefront of project design and operational planning in British Columbia, researchers look for innovative ways to foster impact assessment efficiency without sacrificing quality. In this study I explore methods for employing LiDAR-derived digital elevation models as a tool for archaeological prospection within the Highland Valley Copper Mine. A review of contemporary and formative LiDAR-analysis archaeological prospection research was conducted to identify the most appropriate visualization techniques and data management workflow. Specific methods for the identification of microtopographic relief with the potential to contain archaeological resources were developed. The efficacy of LiDAR-based topographic analysis using manual feature extraction is validated through comparison with georeferenced survey and ground-truthing data provided by my research partners at the Nlaka’pamux Nation Tribal Council. -

USDA Forest Service, Alaska Region, R10-MB-77. Pages 165-171. (I) Author abstract: This study was initiated to provide information to silviculturists and concerned members of the public about the environmental characteristics of the Skeena River floodplains that affect the fate of forestry herbicides. This paper describes 1) the annual groundwater regime and its driving forces, 2) the stratigraphy of the deposits, 3) the physical characteristics of the soil, and 4) the climatic regime of both air and soil. Based on these data and the chemical and physical properties of certain herbicides, inferences are made about their probable fate in coastal alluvial environments. The period late July to early September is identified as the safest for the application of herbicides as the water table is low and consequently the chances of flooding are low. The surface deposits of fine silts and the rapid incorporation of organic matter into the soil should ensure low mobility of most herbicides. 278) Beaudry, P.G., and A. Gottesfeld. 2001.

The 5th Annual West Kootenay Glacier Challenge Scotiabank MS Bike Tour Courtesy of: Nelson & District Chamber of Commerce 91 Baker Street Nelson B.C. Ph. 250 352 3433 [email protected] discovernelson.com Scotiabank MS Bike Tour August 20-21, 2016 The tour starts in New Denver… Slocan Valley… New Denver- Founded upon the discovery of silver in the mountains adjacent to Slocan Lake in 1891, prospectors from the United States came flooding up to the New Denver region in 1892 to stake their claims, and gather their riches. New Denver quickly grew to a population of 500 people with 50 buildings. In 1895 this growing community built government offices and supply houses for the Silvery Slocan Mines. “A Simple Curve” was filmed in and around the Slocan Valley and was debuted in 2005. The story is of a young man born to war resister parents. War Resisters- In 1976 as many as 14,000 Americans came to the Slocan Valley in an attempt to avoid the Vietnam War. About half of those who made the move were self-proclaimed war resisters, many of whom settled in the Kootenay Region. Nikkei Internment Memorial Centre This exclusive interpretive centre features the Japanese-Canadian internment history of New Denver during the Second World War. The camp is said to have held close to 1500 internees during the war. The memorial centre opened in 1994, which showcases several buildings including the community hall and three restored tar paper shacks with Japanese gardens. A well known Canadian to come out of one of these local institutions is Dr. -
