Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of all the organizers, we are pleased to invite you to take part in the 2021 International Conference on Metrology for Archaeology and Cultural Heritage, to be held in Milano, Italy, October 20-22, 2021.

MetroArchaeo brings together researchers and operators in the enhancement, characterization and preservation of archaeological and cultural heritage with the main objective of discussing production, interpretation and reliability of measurements and data.

The conference is conceived to foster exchanges of ideas and information, create collaborative networks and update innovations on “measurements” suitable for cultural heritage for archaeologists, conservators and scientists.
All contributions will be peer-reviewed on the basis of a full length manuscript and acceptance will be based on quality, originality and relevance. Accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings.
