Tecniche integrate per la documentazione tridimensionale del sito di Valle Giumentina (Abruzzo, Italia) = Integrated 3D survey methods to document the Middle Pleistocene Site of Valle Giumentina (Abruzzo, Italy)

The paper deals with the research carried out by an interdisciplinary team in the Valle Giumentina, a Middle Pleistocene open-air site located in Central Italy (Abruzzo). bIn 2016 a three-dimensional survey of the site of Valle Giumentina has been planned and carried out by means of a laser scanner and close-range photogrammetry. They document the present state of the art of the stratigraphy and at the same time, they represent a 3D structure useful to position data collected in the previous investigations, in particular, the photos acquired during the first fieldworks by Radmilli in 50’s.bThe paper deals with this innovative approach addressed not only to visualize the site in 3D but also to analyse the state of preservation andbthe level of degradation in the course of time due to the natural changes. The communication will show the comparison between the old and the newbdocumentation positioned in a virtual 3D environment.
