The archaeological research in desert areas has long employed multidisciplinary field and laboratory methods. The Italian Archaeological Mission in the Farafra Oasis - Egypt of the Sapienza University of Rome benefits from three decades of experience during which it has kept pace with the latest developments in fieldwork techniques. Geomatic techniques, as used by the Geodesy and Geomatic Area of the same university, are particularly important for archaeological research concerned with large geographical areas. The paper shows how survey was organised through several stages, from the creation of accurate maps, to photoplans of significant structures and to DEMs of the different find locations. Processing the cartographic data from the Wadi el Obeiyid, moreover, made it possible to hypothesize which areas would have been suitable for human settlement, and these will be the focus of future surveys.
