The rapidly increasing number of earth observation satellites provides new opportunities for the multitemporal investigation of archaeological sites and the monitoring of cultural heritage. This paper explores the potential of daily satellite imagery with high spatial resolution for the observation and analysis of severe weather events and their effects on archaeological features. Focusing on two severe storms that struck the Greek island of Samothrace in 2017, we highlight the ways in which these data can be used to monitor the status of sites, detect damage, and contribute toward the development of preservation and risk management strategies.
