• Resumen

  • Some aspects related to the definition of the Brundisium (Brindisi, Puglia) Roman wall will be explored in this work. Historical and contemporary cartography, as well as archaeological data and the city area digital terrain model have been compared by applying GIS technology, hence improving our urban layout understanding.

    Through the data collected, we will be able to suggest an ancient city wall reconstruction and figure out the possible location of the gates.
