Hi,
I would like to know the coordinates of the geographical barycentres of all
the italian regions (ie. Tuscan, Lazio, Sicily ecc.).
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks

If one can't find data online, these can be found by digitizing
a map with some cad software
For example for a closed polygon Rhinoceros V. 3.0
has the following command Analyze-Mass properties-
Area Centroid.

In Chapter 5 of the following, excellent book
Statistics and Data Analysis in Geology
3rd edition
By John C. Davis you will find the appropriate
algorithms to do it.
I am sure you can consult this book at your
local university

Regards,

Joe Rat
