... and the dimension of uncovered areas, therefore the construction of a 3D surface, built by the interpolation of the elevation points and simulating the DTM, has been considered. This surface has been than sectioned by a sequence of horizontal planes with an offset of 2 m, identi- fying a series of curves superimposed on the DTM. These curves (Fig. 5) show both the surface trend of the area with respect to the local cartography and the altitude variability, with the presence of flat areas, such as Piazza Bologna, and the presence of "altitude peaks" distributed in the territory; this latter does not present a uniform direction in altitude variation, although it is possible to see a ...
