In this chapter, on the basis of several case studies, we shall try and illustrate in what way geophysical techniques can contribute to the stratigraphic assessment of a site providing high-level information and contributing at least to rationally planning, if not completing avoiding at, the drilling campaign. In all cases, the primary method of investigation has been that of reflection seismology employed at different scales. However, this method was prevalently preceded by a gravity survey, which is essential for the proper design of the acquisition parameters, and accompanied by other geophysical data and direct surveys, such as drillings and exploratory excavations.

Abstract
In this chapter, on the basis of several case studies, we shall try and illustrate in what way geophysical techniques can contribute to the stratigraphic assessment of a site providing high-level information and contributing at least to rationally planning, if not completing avoiding at, the drilling campaign. In all cases, the primary method of investigation has been that of reflection seismology employed at different scales. However, this method was prevalently preceded by a gravity survey, which is essential for the proper design of the acquisition parameters, and accompanied by other geophysical data and direct surveys, such as drillings and exploratory excavations.
