SEARCH MAPS. The green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map opens a second, independent map on OpenStreetMap coverage of the whole country. Its search box finds any Italian comune, frazione, mountain or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Chiaffoni.

Reading the map like an IGM sheet. Click Grid to lay a labelled UTM grid over the map, quoted along the edges the way a printed IGM 1:25 000 tavoletta quotes it — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so a six-figure reference can be read by eye and distance judged straight off the map. Click Measure and tap two points for the distance between them with the grid, true and magnetic bearings, the last being the one to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position for a single GPS fix. It marks where you are and reports it as Gauss-Boaga (the grid printed on the IGM Carta d'Italia), as ETRS89 / UTM (the grid Italy uses today), and as plain latitude and longitude, with a copy button so it can be pasted into a message. It takes one reading and stops, to save the battery. Map tiles need mobile coverage; a GPS reading does not — so the grid reference stays correct in the Apennines and the Alps, where the map itself often will not load.

Usa i pulsanti Map e Satellite per passare dalla carta stradale alla fotografia aerea, i pulsanti + e − per lo zoom, e trascina la mappa per spostarti. Il pulsante 🔍 Search Maps apre una seconda carta su OpenStreetMap con la ricerca di qualsiasi comune, frazione o cima d'Italia, la griglia UTM quotata come su una tavoletta IGM 1:25 000, la misura di distanze e azimut (di griglia, vero e magnetico) e la lettura GPS della posizione in Gauss-Boaga, in ETRS89/UTM e in coordinate geografiche. Le tessere della mappa richiedono la rete mobile, la lettura GPS no: il riferimento resta valido anche dove la carta non si carica.

About Chiaffoni

Chiaffoni sits upon the hillside within the comune of Dego, defined by the quiet presence of Bric Ridotta and the nearby flow of the F. Bormida di Spigno. The land holds a particular stillness, where the air feels thin and sharp against the rugged slopes. Nearby, the Ferrania Film Museum preserves the memory of light on celluloid, while the ruins of Castello Cairo Montenotte command the skyline as a reminder of the shifting earth. Further afield, the Oasi Rocchetta Cairo offers a sanctuary of protected nature, grounding the village in a landscape that stretches toward the distant, unseen coast.

About This Chiaffoni Map Page / Informazioni su questa pagina

Explore Chiaffoni, Dego, Savona, Italy, with an embedded Google street and satellite map — switch between the two with the buttons on the map. Coordinates: 44.45107, 8.332914. Place names, the comune and provincia hierarchy and the population come from Istat: the administrative boundaries of 1 January 2026 and the 2021 census of inhabited localities. Local and world news feeds keep the page current, and the bilingual description is written from the data this site holds rather than copied from elsewhere. The 32 nearby places listed above are drawn from OpenStreetMap, the IGM toponym database and a curated list checked against Wikipedia.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Italian comune, frazione, mountain or landmark by name; overlays a labelled UTM grid quoted the way a printed IGM 1:25 000 tavoletta quotes it; measures distance with grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a Gauss-Boaga reference, as ETRS89 / UTM, and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles need mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the grid reference stays correct where the map cannot load.

There is no topographic layer on these pages. The Istituto Geografico Militare serves its Carta d'Italia only inside the EU, so an Italian equivalent of the 1:25 000 walking sheet cannot be shown here — the UTM grid over OpenStreetMap is what stands in its place.

Toponimi, gerarchia comune/provincia e popolazione provengono dall'Istat: confini amministrativi al 1° gennaio 2026 e censimento 2021 delle località abitate. Il pulsante Search Maps apre una seconda carta su OpenStreetMap con ricerca per nome, griglia UTM quotata come su una tavoletta IGM 1:25 000, misura di distanze e azimut, e lettura GPS in Gauss-Boaga, ETRS89/UTM e coordinate geografiche. Non è presente un livello topografico: l'IGM distribuisce la Carta d'Italia solo all'interno dell'Unione Europea.
