Archaeology & Anthropology
We provide highly professional comprehensive service and unique experience in the planning, facilitation and conduct of archaeological and anthropological surveys. No two jobs are ever the same so we carefully plan and tailor each project to meet the client’s needs; this includes budgets, timeframes and preparing detailed professional reports. We always provide survey results of the highest standard and quality. We apply the latest ground breaking technology and techniques to ensure optimum project efficiency and outcomes.
Heritage Management
Major Oak Heritage Services are deeply experienced with archaeological aspects of urban development. We provide great depth of knowledge and experience to all projects and consistently prove our worth by achieving outstanding results for all our urban projects. As well as focusing on project objectives, we are always aware of best practice implementation. Our team have all completed White Card Construction Training (Western Australia). We pride ourselves on the integrity of all our work and maintain a strict policy on workplace safety and environmental and heritage priorities.
Ground penetrating radar (GPR)
GPR is a technique we use in geophysics to collect and record data about the earth’s subsurface. This manner of collecting data allows the archaeologist to study and map underlying archaeological features otherwise impossible to distinguish using traditional archaeological methods. Our state of the art equipment coupled with the unique skill sets of our specialised team enable us to bring a new level of efficiency and economical control to many projects that would otherwise be much slower and less effective.
3D Mapping
We create fully geo-referenced 3D models of historic buildings and historically significant places. This can include major urban buildings, significant Western outback sites or places of cultural significance, such as rock shelters, excavation trenches, rock art, artefacts, modified trees, stone arrangements, and relevant geological features.
Heritage Education Perth
Major Oak Heritage Services are experienced educators and possess all necessary valid Working with Children qualifications. We are able to develop and deliver individualised heritage education packages, including heritage inductions, awareness training and primary and secondary school incursions to suit the occasion. We can provide specialised educational packages on request or suggest some proven and popular course options. Contact us to find out how we can best help you within any relevant educational framework from a cultural or historical perspective in the field or classroom.
Aerial Photography & Site Mapping
We specialise in the use of remotely piloted aircraft systems (drones) and terrestrial footage to digitally capture and identify heritage sites in both Aboriginal and other historical contexts. Our data can be used to create stunning digital 3D or photographic imagery offering a unique way to understand landscape and context.
