The subsoil of the capital of Italy is not only rich in remains of Roman civilization, but also in groundwater. The monitoring network has about 200 measuring points between wells and piezometers, some of which are monitored continuously. The level, temperature, ph and conductivity data of the aquifers are collected and recorded on a web app that will soon be available online. To make this activity known, ISPRA has produced the documentary "What flows under our feet?" which explains what the aquifers of Rome are, how they move and how they are controlled.
