Comment on Technique for Manipulating Satellite Photos Now Reveals Ancient Images (2025)parent

If it makes you feel any better, I've also never had any luck finding hidden rock art, petroglyphs, or similar using multispectal bandpass filters or decorellation stretching.

I was super excited about DCS based on some of the recovered petroglyph photos online, and integrated it into some software I wrote years ago.[1] Still hoping I find something as interesting with it as the fellow mentioned in the article. It works, but I haven't had a "gosh, I never would have seen that without DCS!" moment.
