How it is built
We query the Overpass API for every way tagged aerialway inside Italy, then match each lift to the nearest resort in our own list. Where OpenStreetMap has no altitude we take it from an elevation model. We do not hand-correct the data: if a lift is wrong, the right place to fix it is OpenStreetMap, and the fix reaches this file at the next refresh.
Limits, stated
This is a collaborative survey, not an official register. A dismantled lift may still appear, a new one may be missing, and the technical figures are whatever someone entered. For decisions that matter, the lift operator is the authority.
