The Centro Nacional de Investigación sobre la Evolución Humana (CENIEH) and the Instituto Tecnológico de Castilla y León (ITCL) have begun a collaboration to advance the application of hyperspectral analysis in the study of archaeopalaeontological sites. As part of this initiative—aimed at strengthening links with the private and industrial sectors in order to foster technical innovation and knowledge transfer—researchers have studied the infrared response of the oldest levels of the Gran Dolina Site in the Sierra de Atapuerca (Burgos, Spain).
