Abstract
In these years the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region has funded several researches aimed at the characterization of the Friuli Plain (FP) subsoil, which is an important aquifer seat other than, locally, a low enthalpy geothermal reservoir. The DiSGAM and DICA have been engaged by the Hydraulic Survey in order to coordinate an integrated study finalized to the FP confined and unconfined aquifer geometries reconstruction and to provide guide-lines for water rational exploitation (Agreement D,G.R. n. 1827 dd. 27.07.2007). The South FP is formed by a succession of clastic aliuvial deposits (Pllo- Quaternary), overlaying Miocene molasses, Paleogene turbidites and the carbonate platform basement. It is characterized by the presence of a resurgence transition belt, at which the gritty northern area, hosting mainly unconflned aquifers, changes over to a clayey-sandy alternated system, hosting multi-layered confined ones. In order to define underground aquifer relations and patterns, more than 1800 stratigraphic columns ha ve been collected from different public departments' water well data base. Welllogs have been georeferred, missing elevations calculated by regional DTM, possible correspondences controlled and datasets updated. In order to better correlate spatial data a unique implemented Iithostratigraphy legend has been created from present different ones; it is composed of: Lithological Entries (relating Iithology and granulometric features; permeability linked different values are also attributed) and Description Notes (includlng accessory precious information as, for example, fractured, carsified, shell or plants rich intervals turned out to be usefull In depositional setting definition and wells spatial correlation).
