GIS for cataloging the ancient marbles of Oria (Apulia region, Southern Italy)

Maurizio Delli Santi

Abstract

GIS is emerging as tools for controlling the territory. Today, it is recognized that they can be applied in different areas of cultural heritage. The Mediterranean area is characterized by its great use in the classical age of marbles and stones, which are widely reused in later times, a phenomenon that obeys economically viable rules. Similar destiny underwent also Oria, where many Roman city materials were used to build the medieval and modern center. The GIS for systematic mapping of the "ancient marbles" of the city of Oria has been organized so that the common features of stone articles can be detected immediately: in this perspective, appropriate tables have been written to dynamically link Artefacts and vector themes that are the subject of the analysis.
