Rilievo come piattaforma tecnologica della conoscenza: il paradigma di Pompei

This paper examines the modern city of Pompeii, an archaeological and religious site of global significance. Using the most up-to-date technology (Trimble GPS antenna, R5700GPS receiver, Leica ADS 40 photogrammetry system for aerial survey, LIDAR Leica ALS50II airborne laser scanner, Trimble VX S6 Spatial Station, Trimble GX laser scanner), an integrated digital survey was carried out ranging from the regional to the architectural scale. Another survey was carried out to investigate the themes of the evolving city of contemporary Pompeii, with particular emphasis on the material and non-material issues of urban and architectural contexts; the results were organised into a GIS platform.
