Successful methodologies to compare and georeference ancient maps are being currently
applied [8, 9], and provide interesting conclusions about their accuracy. Other projects aim
to reconstruct the history of the territories through ancient cartography, aerial photographs
and field works [10, 11]. Their targets can be easily reached with the capabilities of free open
source tools as NorthGate's Kml Builder.
