L'Ager Pisanus attraverso le evidenze aerofotografiche

The paper presents the results based on the study of aerial photographs of Pisa and the surrounding area, which also includes part of the neighbouring municipal districts of San Giuliano Terme and Cascina. The research was conducted as part of the "MAPPA Project" (Methodologies Applied to Archaeological Potential Predictability) directed by M.L. Gualandi University of Pisa. The study was developed with the objective of analyzing aerial images integrating traditional archaeological methods of photo-interpretation with GIS technologies, to manage in the project's geodatabase an informational level with the anomalies identified and mapped. The 14 flights analyzed, dated from 1943 to 2010, made it possible to identify with certainty numerous traces attributable mainly to the agrarian division of the Roman period. There are, however, archaeological evidence within the urban area or related to the successive phases of urban development of Pisa as the traces of the defensive bastions of the XVII century.

Studio della centuriazione di Pisa attraverso l'analisi delle fotografie aeree, dai voli RAF del 1943 fino ai nostri giorni, realizzato per il MAPPA Project dell'Università di Pisa. Oltre alle tracce archeologiche della divisione agraria d'età romana, lo studio ha permesso di riconoscere i resti dei bastioni difensivi del XVII secolo, sepolti dall'espansione ubanistica della città moderna.
