Abstract: Currently, computing impact areas that can be hit by any projectile is treated by using partial and generalised approaches. Therefore, the objective of this work is the development of automated procedures in the form of a freely available GIS tool programmed in Python language that uses the digital elevation model, physical parameters and settings to compute 'throwshed' - areas, which can be reached with any projectile shot from any given place. The archaeology of conflicts is considered an area of application, but the field of use may be larger. The paper deals with the very basics of a physical model for generating the results, which are also present in the work along with the discussion thereof. The presented results show many functionalities of the tool and offer a few use cases.
Keywords: Digital elevation model; external ballistics; geographic information system; throwshed
