My current project is focused on developing a new method for identifying the species of osteological materials using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology. I have partnered with Spectra Insight and together we are leveraging their advanced spectral camera device and Spectra Insight Software to conduct hypothesis testing experiments. Ultimately, we envision creating a database of animal species spectral profiles to facilitate the identification of nondiagnostic faunal remains from archaeological sites and founding a dedicated archaeo-HSI laboratory to further this research.
