Bio

I’m an archaeologist, GIS analyst, and 3D modeler specializing in the use of digital technologies in field archaeology. I studied at the Departments of Archaeology in Bratislava and Nitra (Slovakia), where I focused on landscape archaeology and spatial analysis.

In my work, I combine traditional archaeological methods with modern tools such as photogrammetry, LIDAR scanning, drone-based aerial photography, 3D modeling, and GIS. My field experience spans Ukraine, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic, with a research focus on fortified settlements, ritual sites, and burial mounds. I’m also engaged in 3D documentation of cultural heritage sites, archaeological sites, and museum spaces — including the open-air museum in Nižná Myšľa (Slovakia).

Until May 2025, I worked as a GIS specialist at the Archaeological Centre Olomouc, where I took part in archaeological site survey projects using LIDAR data and drone-based methods. I am currently pursuing a PhD in archaeology and working as a freelancer on both academic and independent research and commercial projects.

My mission is to make archaeology accessible and relevant in today’s world — bringing the stories of our past and its material legacy into an interactive, open, and digital space.

Result of a 3D scan of the open-air museum in Nižná Myšľa (Slovakia). The model was created using photogrammetry and processed in Reality Capture. The model was created using both ground-based and aerial documentation with a drone and DSLR camera, applying the photogrammetry method. Processing was done in Reality Capture.
