ABSTRACT
Using computational tools, we present in this paper a methodology for analysis of old maps with emphasis on three aspects: its geometry, its georeferencing and its vectorization. Unlike other methodologies aimed at mapping accuracy and absolute positions, it chooses to establish a relative georeferencing, this is, establish relationships of features, locations and trajectories that the ancient map could establish with contemporary maps, without, nonetheless, distorting significantly the original features map of study.
