Building a geo-database on geo- hydrological phenomena (landslides, floods, sinkholes) represents the basic activity for the complex elaborations aimed at the spatial and temporal pre- diction of future events and their pos- sible consequences. The collection and organization of data, together with the management of the database structure, is of extreme importance for the practi- cal technical use of the catalogue. A new database structure, LAND-deFeND 1.1, designed and developed by CNR-IRPI is here presented. It is a database struc- ture that allows to record, organize and manage non-homogeneous information on geo-hydrological events (landslides, floods, sinkholes) occurred in the past, able to overcome many of the limitations highlighted in the databases for Italy. The database has been implemented in the framework of a project involving Civil Protection Department of Apulia region, in order to collect available information on geo-hydrological events occurred in Apulia after 1992. The structure of the database is then presented, illustrating the methodology used to collect information and record data in the database. The col- lected data are presented, with particular attention to a complex event, in order to highlight the potential of the structure.
