Database of Italian quarries and hydrogeological parameters

This multipolygon shapefile represents the Italian national database of active quarries, including key hydrogeological parameters. Quarry locations were georeferenced, and hydrogeological attributes—such as groundwater depth, infiltration, runoff, and proximity to water bodies—were derived from national-scale datasets. This resource aims to support environmental planning, impact assessment, and sustainable groundwater management.
