The effect of the space weathering on the spectral properties of the S–complex asteroids (both Main Belt bodies and near–Earth asteroids) has been widely discussed in recent times. It has also shown that the evolution of spectral properties of planet–crossing bodies, and in particular of near–Earth asteroids (NEAs), is also affected by other physical processes, such as tidal resurfacing due to close encounters with planetary bodies. In this paper we show how to combine previous analyses with the purpose of obtaining a global model for NEAs space weathering.
