Nowadays, in the south of Spain, an I+D+I research project called "The Project of the New Populations of Sierra Morena and Andalusia in a European and Comparative Context: Ideas, Reforms, and Projection (1741-1835) (ProSiMo)" is being carried out with funding from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation. The project aims to understand the process of the formation and exploitation of the Sierra Morena region in the late 18th century through the foundation of the so-called "NuevasPoblaciones" (new population). To achieve this, the project uses a variety of aerial imagery
tools such as drone-made photogrammetry, Lidar data analysis, 3D reconstructions, and historic cartography fused in a GIS environment, as well as historical texts.
The main goal of this proposal is to explain the methodology developed within the framework of the ProSiMo project and to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each technique used. It will also showcase some of the results and conclusions obtained during the development of the project.
