dc.description.abstractWe present the first comprehensive, high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) documentation of the Railway Trench at the Sierra de Atapuerca (Burgos, Spain) -one of Europe's most important palaeoarchaeological complexes- by integrating multisensor geomatic techniques. Although Atapuerca's rich fossil and lithic record has been studied since the late 1970s, detailed spatial data have remained limited to excavations. To overcome this, our study deploys a unified geospatial framework combining GNSS-RTK and total station surveying to support the application of Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles photogrammetry within the 550 m-long trench and its immediate surroundings (50 ha). By delivering an unprecedentedly detailed and accurate digital twin (sub-decimetre resolution) of the palaeolithic context, digitalisation aims to enhance conservation, monitoring, virtual dissemination and future excavation planning. The results shown here demonstrate the potential of integrated multisensor workflows in Palaeolithic archaeology and are intended to safeguard and interpret the complex landscape of the Sierra de Atapuerca in future studies.en_US
