Conoscere, comunicare, gestire il rischio idrogeologico in ambiente montano: 3/3

On February 15, 2018, we had the second day of the workshop: "Know, communicate and manage the hydrological and geological risk in mountain environment", originally intended for journalists, technicians, as politicians. It was held at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Mechanical Engineering Department of the University of Trento. This page reports the second day.
The first part of the workshop can be found in two previous post:

• February 7th, morning
• February 7th, afternoon

• Introduction

• About Italian legislation on hazards by Eugenio Caliceti

• Planning Emergencies after natural hazards by Marta Martinengo

• The hazard map of Trentino Province by Mauro Zambotto

• Discussion after dott. Zambotto presentation

• Comments on work groups simulations by Rocco Scolozzi

This video presents part of the so called “Hazard Map” of Trentino Province in Italy. This is a work started in 2004 that aimed to substitute and simplify previous hazard maps. these maps are used for a variety of scopes that goes from urban and regional planning to civil protection scopes.
As reported in the Province website relative to the Hazard map, the following hazards are mapped:

Hydrological and geological hazards about:

•  rivers; 
•  torrents; 
•  hillslope; 
•  snow avalanches. 

Other hazards:

• sismicity; 
• unexploded bombs (after second world war); 
• forest fires

The seminar was part of a short course held by Ing. Claudio Bortolotti, a former director of Civil Protection in Trentino, entitled: Integrated Civil Protection Systems.

The speakers were: dott. Mauro Zambotto, directory of Trento province Geological Service (TPGS), dott. Franco Daminato, and dott. Riccardo Campana, geologists at TPGS

I think that the seminar was interesting and highlight the practical use of many tools that I try to popularize to my students.
