Nowadays globes are an important subject to study both for their history, their cartographic content and their artistic aspects. Moreover some softwares, such as Google Earth, Virtual Globe and many others, are very widespread because of their usability and, above all, because they represent a complex object, the Earth, in a intelligible way. This works deals with the possibility of applying digital technologies to the cartographic globes, especially Coronelli’s one, to obtain a virtual copy to navigate and to query.
