Abstract

Given the importance of modern day aerial surveys, a detailed evocation of the first aerial survey of an entire city, performed in order to develop a faithful, objective and accurate map, is unquestionably of great interest. The reason Pompeii was chosen was the fear that Vesuvius might once again erupt and bury her, this time without leaving even the hope of recovering its final relics. The leading actors of this event were a dozen or so men from the Special Engineering Battalion thus enhancing the very meager technical assets and the even more meager financial resources of the era.
