description The town of Terni, located in a strategic position along the Roman uia Flaminia, represents a typical and symbolic example of a settlement that has lived continuously up to present days. The centre run across little changes in it urban pattern, up to the first decades of the 20th Century, when it was radically transformed, at such degree that the identification of the ancient evidence can be performed by few and scanty traces. This article is aimed at providing an updated state of the art of the studies on Roman Terni and also integrating latest studies performed collecting data on-field and also by a thorough survey of archives. The new considerations have been developed on the basis of a GIS platform built to collect and spatially analyse the available current and legacy data.
