Topographic Database - TOPIC: INLAND AND TRANSITION WATERS

The theme "INTERNAL AND TRANSITION WATERS" refers to the classification and structuring of the area occupied by inland or transitional waters.

A distinction is made between running waters and still waters; the running waters can be of natural watercourses (rivers or streams) or artificial (channels), and are represented by the class "Wet Area", while the still waters, which are represented by the class "Mirror of water", can be of lakes, ponds or swamps, etc. There are also artificial reservoirs, represented by the class "Invasi", or artificial reservoirs obtained from dams or other productive activities (caves, salt pans).
Finally, they are part of this whole:
- springs, resurgences and fountains, represented by the class "Natural water emergencies"; both springs and springs and fountains can be represented on the territory by polygons collapsible in points.
- the waterfalls.
