  • A Long-Term Analysis of Passenger Flows on a Regional Rail Line
    C. Caropreso et al., Int. J. Transp. Dev. Integr., Vol. 1, No. 3 (2017) 329–338 A LONG-TERM ANALYSIS OF PASSENGER FLOWS ON A REGIONAL RAIL LINE C. Caropreso, C. DI Salvo, M. Botte & L. D’ACIERNO Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, Federico II University of Naples, Italy. Abstract Promoting rail systems can represent a useful policy for rebalancing modal choices and reducing pri- vate car use, especially in high-density contexts. Obviously, an increase in passenger numbers is only possible if generalized costs (i.e. a weighted sum of times and monetary costs) associated to public transport are abated. According to the recent literature and current professional practice, most strategies for achieving this objective are based only on infrastructural interventions which may be unfeasible or inadequate in densely populated contexts. Likewise, the adoption of policies based on replacing exist- ing fleets or reducing fare levels entails increases in national or regional subsidies, which would be difficult to achieve in the current economic climate. Hence, our proposal is based on investigating effects on travel demand arising from the replacement or upgrading of existing signalling systems (both in terms of trackside and on-board equipment). In- deed, the recent European Union policy to create a single transnational interoperable rail network im- poses the development of innovative signalling systems. In this context, since cost–benefit analysis has to be implemented to verify the economic and environmental feasibility of the proposed intervention strategy, an appropriate method should be developed to estimate passenger flows according to future configurations. In this article, we propose a method to determine travel demand in current and future contexts by appropriately processing data from Italy’s national census on mobility, population growth forecasts and turnstile counts.

  • Workshops of Apulian
    - . WORKSHOPSOF APULIAN RED-FIGURE OUTSIDE TARANTO E. G. D. Robinson The publication of The Red-figured Vasesof Apulia brought, for the first time, structure to a massive body of information. The classification of thousands of vases, on the basis of style, has opened the way to other kinds of studies. One such study is offered here with gratitude to Alexander Cambitoglou from a colleague and former pupil. Since the beginning of the study of Apulian red-figured vases, there has been controversy over the localization of its workshops.l It is now accepted that Apulian red-figured vases were first made in Taranto; only late in the series are Apulian workshops outside Taranto postulated. It is widely recognized that one important late group, comprising the Baltimore Painter, Arpi Painter, White SaccosPainter and others, worked in Canosa or somewhere close by.2 Other painters, outside this broad stylistic grouping, may be strongly associatedwith one site, like the Laterza Painter with Salapia and the Lampas Painter with Canosa.3Caution should be exercised if, as in these two cases, a large proportion of the vases with proveniences come from one tomb.4 The acquisition of large groups of vases by one painter, who need not have been working locally, for placementin a tomb is commonin the later 4th cent. BC. The presencein : Rutigliano (1976) Tomb 24 of seven vases by the Painter of the Berlin Dancing Girl i shows that the phenomenon exists right from the beginning of the Apulian series.s The present study aims to use the stylistic groups and proveniences published in RVAp for a simple statistical survey.6 It will firstly look at the proveniences of vases in Late Apulian red-figure, to examine the possible localization of workshops in northern Apulia.

    Guided small group cycling tour Amalfi Coast & Cilento Cycling the Coast of the Sirens Enjoy the best of southern Italy: from the unknown Cilento to the dramatic Amalfi Coast TRIP NOTES 2020 © Genius Loci Travel. All rights reserved. [email protected] | www.genius-loci.it ***GENIUS LOCI TRAVEL - The Real Spirit Of Italy*** Guided small group cycling tour INTRODUZIONE The regions of Amalfi and the Cilento have been known as a paradise on earth since ancient times. The Greeks built some of their most impressive temples here and under the Romans they formed part of ‘Campania Felix’, or the Happy Land. When travelling here, one easily becomes overwhelmed by the well-known cultural and natural attractions of the famous ‘Costiera Amalfitana’ with its towering cliffs and picturesque coves. However, the Cilento region south of Salerno, now one of Italy’s biggest National Parks, where the coastline bulges out into an expanse of mountainous landmass, is also well worth a visit. This tour gives you the opportunity to discover both the busy, touristy Amalfi and the quiet, peaceful Cilento. Here in the Cilento National Park you pass through world-famous cultural sites that are UNESCO World Heritage listed, such as Velia and Paestum, and visit some of the nicest medieval villages in the area, both along the coast and slightly inland, where the traditional way of life is still evident. All these attractions are connected by great well-paved and quiet roads, ideal for cycling. Of course there will also be plenty of time to enjoy the splendid beaches and wonderful food on offer.

  • The GIS Application to the Spatial Data Organization of the Necropolis of Poseidonia-Paestum (Salerno, Italy)
    The GIS Application to the Spatial Data Organization of the Necropolis of Poseidonia-Paestum (Salerno, Italy) A. SANTORIELLO', F. U. SCELZA', R. GALLOTTP, R. BOVE\ L. SIRANGELO', A. PONTRANDOLFO' ' University of Salemo, Department of Cultural Heritage, Laboratory of Archaeology "M. Napoli", Italy ' CRdC "Innova", Department of Cultural Heritage, University of Salemo, Italy ' Independent Software Developer ABSTRACT This paper concerns about the spatial organization and the thematic management of the Poseidonia and Paestum's urban funeral areas. The wide archaeological heritage, investigated since the beginning of XIX century, had been studied using different research methodologies. These studies led to several inhomogeneous documents. First of all, we have to notice the absence of a general topographical map concerning the exact localization of each grave. In front of this scenario, the aim for the researcher consisted in the documentary source's collection and the integration in order to construct an unique cartographical base to use as a corner stone for the Paestum 's plain. This base has been realized through the acquisition of multi-temporal and multi- scalar supports. These different data have been organized within a Geographical Information System, according to the same cartographical projection system. The burial ground's geo-localisation has been realized through survey control operations, carried out by a satellite positioning system (GPS- Glonass) with subcentrimetrical resolution. The second phase of the research aimed to the database construction in order to collect analytical records, relevant to each tomb, and to link the archaeological data to the geographical entities previously created. The target was to create an informative layer, selective and comprehensive at the same time, able to process specific thematic questions, analysis of singular funerary context and comparative examination of the entire necropolis.
