A recent experience was done with GPS, starting from cartography at small scale. The aim was to
certificate some places, but the results made us to consider that the obtained precision was unsatisfied.
1. Location of places and planning of
survey
The places, objects of survey 1 , are:
1 The researching group of the area Survey and

and Messina. The operation of survey has already
been done on the coast of Calabria. On the contrary,
it was impossible to do the operation on tire coast of
Sicilia.
