Introduction

The Italy-Tuscany 10m elevation model is a digital terrain model produced by the Tuscany Region through its Direzione Generale Governo del Territorio. The elevation data are in a 10m x 10m grid and have a spatial coverage for the whole of Tuscany. The model was produced from base maps in scale 1:10000 in years 1993-1998.
