The digital database of dovecote towers in Salento (Southern Italy)

Maurizio Delli Santi
Abstract:
The potential of GIS applications has been successfully applied in the most diverse fields for years, starting from urban planning to geology, from agriculture to cultural heritage, and from engineering to architecture. Through GIS systems, territorial information can be entered in a single container that allows not only to save and preserve them but also to study and process them. This GIS for the systematic filing of the dovecotes present in Salento in Puglia, implements GIS analysis technologies. With them the common characteristics of the architectures are immediately highlighted, thus creating tables which, converted into special formats, dynamically connect the artefacts and the thematic segments: a precious source for an innovative analysis tool, in terms of conservative recovery and subsequent enhancement of the entire system of dovecotes present in Salento.
