The main map covers the territory of the Tuscany Region, in Central Italy and shows the main stratigraphic and tectonic features of the internal part of the Northern Apennines. This is characterized by nappe superposition well exposed in the Apennine chain (in the eastern part of the map), as well the effects of post-nappe extensional tectonics, originating in Miocene-Pliocene and younger basins bordered by metamorphic core complexes, covering most of the central and southern part of the Region. The map is at 1:300,000 scale and is based on 1:10,000 field mapping
