Nature map of Calabria region

As part of the work to create the Nature Map of Italy, the habitat map and the related ecological-environmental assessments for the Calabria region are now available on the ISPRA website.

With Calabria, the Nature Map has been completed on 17 Regions, reaching almost 80% of the national territory.
The map, at a scale of 1:25,000, includes 123 different habitat types.

The products were created with regional resources, with the participation of the Mediterranean University, the University of Calabria and the coordination of ISPRA, in order to ensure harmony with the Carta della Natura products.

The cartography can be viewed on the ISPRA Geoportal or requested free of charge in shapefile format using the appropriate online form.

The Calabria region has published a monograph which illustrates the methodologies for creating maps and describes, through specific sheets, the mapped habitats.
