Abstract

The Spanish domination has affected the Sardinia from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century. The traces for such a prolonged stay can not be summarized in a few, though of great value, buildings published in the literature. There is a huge underwater heritage, in the so-called “minor contexts”, unexplored, but not lacking in importance and historical significance. It is absent, even in the best-known cases, spatial and geometric analysis based on the finding of the building: the published studies have in fact a purely historical character, almost completely ignoring the technical-constructive and geometrical space. Here we report the first results of a research project in which the documentation has been made, mainly graphics, such as to illustrate every part of the buildings surveyed, with the ultimate aim to promote knowledge and thereby safeguard. Each phase of the project has faced several methodological and technological issues, from data to their management and organization for consultation. The method of investigation is highly technical. The results will promptly publish and useful, because it meant in terms of compatibility with current and common dissemination platforms, such as Google or similar. The end result will make available the data collected and processed into 3D models complete with data sheets, directly on the interface as "Sardinia 3D" or Google Earth.
