The Inventory of Italian Landslide Events (IFFI) consists of a database on the management of every landslide found anywhere in Italy, useful for planning and prevention purposes. The Region of Tuscany has established an agreement with the Italian Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA, formerly APAT), the funding and supervisory body for the IFFI project, to populate the database for the areas it covers. The most recent update was completed in 2006, and included the integration of the landslides surveyed by the Region of Tuscany 1:10,000 geological database, in the "Ombrone" and "Tuscany Costa" basins. The number of slope failures currently catalogued in the database is 39,517.
The database is made up of the georeferenced maps of the landslide polygons, lines and points controlled both on the 1:10,000 regional technical map (Gauss-Boaga – Roma 40 coordinate system) and on the 1:25,000 topographic maps of the Italian military geographic institute (IGM) (UTM 32N– ED50 coordinate system), and of a database created using Microsoft Access, which contains detailed information on each landslide.
