About Campi Flegrei, Italy
The Phlegraean Fields (Italian: Campi Flegrei, Italian: [ˈkampi fleˈɡrɛi]; Neapolitan: Campe Flegree; Latin: Phlegraei campi; Ancient Greek: Φλεγραία Πεδία) is a large volcanic caldera west of Naples, Italy. The Neapolitan Yellow Tuff eruption (about 12ka BP) produced just 50 cubic kilometers. It is, however, one of relatively few volcanoes large enough to form a caldera. It is part of the Campanian volcanic arc, which includes Mount Vesuvius, about 9 km (6 miles) east of Naples. The Phlegraean Fields is monitored by the Vesuvius Observatory. Part of the city of Naples is built over it.

Questions about Campi Flegrei, Italy
Where is Campi Flegrei?
Campi Flegrei is in Italy at 40.8270, 14.1390. The model covers a 10 by 10 kilometer square around that point.
How high is the terrain in the Campi Flegrei model?
The land in this model runs from 0 to 456 m (456 m of relief). These are the measured heights, printed 3 times taller so the shape is easy to see.
Can I 3D print Campi Flegrei?
Yes. Download the free Standard resolution STL and print it on any FDM or resin printer. It is 150 mm wide and about 25.5 mm tall, on a solid 5 mm base, at a scale of about 1:66,700. It also works for CNC carving. Use Customize to change the width, base thickness or height exaggeration, make it round or add a name plate.
How accurate is the Campi Flegrei model?
It is built from real elevation measurements, not an artist's guess: open satellite and survey data (NASA SRTM, Copernicus and national surveys), about 30 meters per point. The shaded picture on this page is made from the same data.
Is the Campi Flegrei model free?
The Standard resolution model is free as STL, 3MF, Colored 3MF, OBJ and a 16-bit heightmap. High resolution samples the place about ten times more finely and is a paid upgrade.
What is a Campi Flegrei terrain model good for?
People use it as a geology lesson you can hold, a classroom model or a desk piece.
About this terrain model
Embossify Terra builds Campi Flegrei, Italy from real measured elevation, not an artist's guess. Outside the United States the heights come from open satellite and survey data (NASA SRTM, Copernicus and national surveys), about 30 meters per point.
The model covers a 10 by 10 kilometer square centered on 40.8270, 14.1390. It prints 150 mm (5.9 in) wide on a solid base, a scale of about 1:66,700. The heights are exaggerated 3× so the shape is easy to see and feel; you can change that when you customize the model. The sea is flattened to zero, so land stands on a clean base.
