  • Abstract
    Centuriation was a regular method for land parcel definition used by the ancient Romans, whose vestiges are still visible today in some places. Detecting such vestiges is relevant to landscape archaeology studies. In this paper we propose a new method for extensive automated inspection of heritage aerial photos in order to detect clues of centuriation.
