The study area (600 km<sup>2</sup>), consisting of Orco and Soana valleys in theWestern Italian Alps, experienced different types of natural hazards,typical of the whole Alpine environment. Some of the authors have beenrequested to draw a civil protection plan for such mountainous regions. Thisoffered the special opportunity (1) to draw a lot of unpublished historical data,dating back several centuries mostly concerning natural hazard processes andrelated damages, (2) to develop original detailed geo-morphological studiesin a region still poorly known, (3) to prepare detailed thematic mapsillustrating landscape components related to natural conditions and hazards,(4) to thoroughly check present-day situations in the area compared to theeffects of past events and (5) to find adequate natural hazard scenarios forall sites exposed to risk. The method of work has been essentially to comparearchival findings with field evidence in order to assess natural hazardprocesses, their occurrence and magnitude, and to arrange all such elementsin a database for GIS-supported thematic maps. Several types of naturalhazards, such as landslides, rockfalls, debris flows, stream floods and snowavalanches cause huge damage to lives and properties (housings, roads,tourist sites). We aim to obtain newly acquired knowledge in this large,still poorly understood area as well as develop easy-to-interpret productssuch as natural risk maps
