Magic Level 4 Critical Points (RNDT Dataset) — Version 2.0

The critical points in the map represent one or more elements, mainly morphobatimetric, of level 3 which, in the view of the interpreter, indicate the existence of a risk, understood as a concrete possibility that, if a given event occurs, it could harm people and/or infrastructure (whether in the impossibility of specifying the probability and in what time such event may occur). It is the only level, therefore, in which, even in a qualitative and subjective way, risk considerations regarding the presence or not of potentially damaged structures and the type of geological process are expressed. The critical points represent only reports of critical situations, therefore meritorious attention of any cognitive insights. They are represented as red rectangles that delimit the morphobatimetric element considered potentially dangerous. For each critical point a code and a name is defined, and there is a specific chapter within the Compendium Notes, in which the outline is described, the reasons for its danger and the nature of the potential “risk”. These critical points are therefore neither complete nor homogeneous between the different sheets, being their definition left to the discretion of the individual interpreter. Their hierarchisation was carried out during the MaGIC 2 project following the MaGIC project (see also: http://dati.protezionecivile.it/geoportalDPC/rest/document?id=PCM%3ACNR_IGAG_04%3A20161213%3A12%3A53%3A20).
