Abstract

Guglielmo Marconi brought on his experiments obtaining the first radio transmissions in Coltano, near Pisa, in a radio station opened in 1911. Nowadays in that place it is possible to see only some ruins and the traces of various large antennas. To face this poor condition and to discover back the site, a specific research has been started, focusing the efforts in the try to give back a sense of place and proposing a system of interventions integrating real/digital elements into a possible plan of restoration. After a first digital survey of the area, this research started to develop reconstructed 3D digital models, giving large importance to an augmented reality experience, capable to bring back in place the colossal antennas and guiding the visitors to the value of this place.
