The National Geodatabase of Artificial Cavities (GNCA) is online
The National Geodatabase of Artificial Cavities (GNCA) collects the location, data and documentation, plans, sections and inspection reports relating to the artificial cavities surveyed throughout the country as part of an agreement stipulated in 2020 between the Department for the Geological Survey of Italy (ISPRA) and the Italian Speleological Society (SSI).
The GNCA is characterized by the large amount of information of a geological nature, morphometric data and aspects connected to the danger of instability, underground and on the surface, constituting a useful technical-scientific tool for researchers, technicians and personnel involved in the management and administration of the territory, for the purpose of managing and enhancing the cavities themselves and mitigating the risk associated with them.
