Remote sensing using airborne and satellite sensors is an essential tool for rapidly investigating human traces over large surfaces of our planet, but even large monumental structures may be visible as only faint indications on the surface. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of a machine learning approach using airborne laser scanning data to address a “needle-in-a-haystack” problem, which involves the search for remnants of Viking ring fortresses throughout Denmark. First ring detection was applied using the Hough circle transformations and template matching, which detected 202,048 circular features in Denmark. This was reduced to 199 candidate sites by using their geometric properties and the application of machine learning techniques to classify the cultural and topographic context of the features. Two of these near perfectly circular features are convincing candidates for Viking Age fortresses, and two are candidates for either glacial landscape features or simple meteor craters.

    Plan for fiskepleje i vandløb på Lolland, Falster og Møn Distrikt 7, vandsystem 09-56 Distrikt 8, vandsystem 01-49 Plan nr. 13-2011 Af Morten Carøe Plan for fiskepleje i vandløb på Lolland, Falster og Møn Distrikt 7- vandsystem 09 – 56 Distrikt 8- vandsystem 01 – 49 I. Indledning Denne plan er udarbejdet på baggrund af undersøgelser over den fiskeribiologiske tilstand i ovennævnte vandsystemer på Lolland, Falster og Møn. Undersøgelsen er foretaget i perioden fra den 11. til den 22. oktober 2010 af DTU Aqua, Sektion for Ferskvandsfiskeri og - økologi med assistance fra medlemmer fra Lystfiskerforeningen for Nykøbing F og Omegn og Møns Sportsfiskerforening. Planen er en revision af den tidligere plan fra år 2003. Planen er udarbejdet som led i de aktiviteter, der sker i forbindelse med den generelle fiskepleje. Vordingborg og Guldborg kommuner har været behjælpelige med oplysninger om restaureringer og vandløbsnavne m.m. Medlemmer fra Lystfiskerforeningen for Nykøbing F og Omegn og Møns Sportfiskerforening, især Thomas Brygger og Kim Keldborg, har været behjælpelige med oplysnin- ger om de generelle fysiske forhold i vandløbene, herunder en beskrivelse af de restaureringstiltag som er foretaget. Udsætninger i vandløbene bliver varetaget af nævnte foreninger. Metode Planen er inddelt i 4 afsnit (I-IV) og et tilhørende oversigtskort. På kortet er der udlagt et stationsnet på de steder i vandsystemet, hvor der er en undersøgelses- eller udsætningstation. Ved teksten, af- snit II, er alle stationsnumrene nævnt, men alle stationer er ikke nødvendigvis blevet besigtiget eller befisket ved undersøgelsen. På kortet vil en station fremstå som et punkt med nummer. Såfremt der tillige er udsætning, vil stationen være vist ved et symbol, der samtidig angiver hvilken størrelses- gruppe, der skal udsættes.

    The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A)

    The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A) David K. Faux The goal of the present work is to assemble widely scattered facts to accurately record the story of one of Europe’s most enigmatic people of the early historic era – the Cimbri. To meet this goal, the present study will trace the antecedents and descendants of the Cimbri, who reside or resided in the northern part of the Jutland Peninsula, in what is today known as the County of Himmerland, Denmark. It is likely that the name Cimbri came to represent the peoples of the Cimbric Peninsula and nearby islands, now called Jutland, Fyn and so on. Very early (3rd Century BC) Greek sources also make note of the Teutones, a tribe closely associated with the Cimbri, however their specific place of residence is not precisely located. It is not until the 1st Century AD that Roman commentators describe other tribes residing within this geographical area. At some point before 500 AD, there is no further mention of the Cimbri or Teutones in any source, and the Cimbric Cheronese (Peninsula) is then called Jutland. As we shall see, problems in accomplishing this task are somewhat daunting. For example, there are inconsistencies in datasources, and highly conflicting viewpoints expressed by those interpreting the data. These difficulties can be addressed by a careful sifting of diverse material that has come to light largely due to the storehouse of primary source information accessed by the power of the Internet. Historical, archaeological and genetic data will be integrated to lift the veil that has to date obscured the story of the Cimbri, or Cimbrian, peoples.

Compared with many other ancient structures, considerable experience is required to identify and interpret traces of roads in the form of abandoned tracks. As a consequence, their recording and preservation present many challenges. Nonetheless, in the mid-1990s, under the leadership of Kristian Kristiansen, the former Division of Cultural History of the National Forest and Nature Agency, under the Danish Ministry of Environment, took on the task of creating a national database of remains of prehistoric and historic tracks and roads.
