ABSTRACT

The history of Hasta Regia, one of the roman colonies in Baetica province and one of the most important pre-roman cities in southwest Spain, has been hidden for a long time. Now, with the use of non-invasive techniques, we can develop the knowledge of this city, only known by some excavations in 1942 until 1956, in peripheral areas of the city. Now with the unit of georadar and the service of drones of the University of Cadiz, we could advance the knowledge of this city, using some new non-invasive archaeological research techniques, which involves the data collection, without the need to alter the vestiges. With geographical information systems (GIS), drones remote pilot aircrafts (RPA) and ground penetrating radar (GPR), we can model the natural and historical environment of the place, as well as to detect possible structures without the need for excavations.
