Contribution to the Archaeological Map of Umbria (CAU): a diachronic analysis of the territory to the northeast of the city of Perugia, Upper Tiber Valley, Umbria

This paper summarises the results obtained between 2020 and 2022 during the topographic study carried out in the northeastern sector of Perugia as part of my master’s thesis at the University of Siena. The study involved the collection of published documentation followed by field-survey activities using Mobile GIS (QField) and aerial survey with UAVs. The data collected were managed and processed in a GIS environment, thus contributing to the analysis of the high archaeological potential of this territory and its settlement dynamics as well as past human-environment interactions, in a long-term perspective. The collected data also contributed to the expansion of the Archaeological Map of Umbria (CAU).

Abstract

This paper summarises the results obtained between 2020 and 2022 during the topographic study carried out in the northeastern sector of Perugia as part of my master’s thesis at the University of Siena. The study involved the collection of published documentation followed by field-survey activities using Mobile GIS (QField) and aerial survey with UAVs. The data collected were managed and processed in a GIS environment, thus contributing to the analysis of the high archaeological potential of this territory and its settlement dynamics as well as past human-environment interactions, in a long-term perspective. The collected data also contributed to the expansion of the Archaeological Map of Umbria (CAU).
