Infoscape for the Phlegraean Fields: digital technologies for the knowledge and enhancement of the Park’s Archaeological sites

Abstract

The research deals with the knowledge and valorisation of the huge but widespread archaeological heritage in the Phlegraean Fields, characterized by a fragility high degree due to the bradyseismic phenomena in that area. The research proposes an infoscape for the Archaeological Park, i.e. an integrated project that aims, on the one hand, to survey the heritage at risk of disappearance and, on the other, to use the 3d model obtained by digital photogrammetry to configure new spatial relationships between physically distant places (through theme-based tours), between lost spaces and real remains, between real and digital spaces, in order to generate a new model of a widespread and more inclusive museum, in which digital information is not only related to the single monument, but it is recombined, remixed and recontextualized, so determining new physical and semantic geographies.
