Abstract

The new geophysical surveys, together with the GIS and archaeological evidence described above, combined with the precision and versatility of the LiDAR data, have combined to fulfil the potential of the earlier geophysical survey. It was possible to compare signs clearly associated with buried archaeological remains to the results of magnetometry and subsequently verify this data by querying the LiDAR point cloud and obtaining their position. This method has overcome the issue created by the disappearance of the topographic references used by the earlier work and the errors that occurred in rescaling the data by the earlier survey. The ability to precisely anchor the geophysical prospection has allowed for an initial interpretation to be made of the urban plan of the Civita di Tarquinia and for the planning of future research.
