"Come punti di controllo sono stati adottati gli spigoli relativi alla **parametratura** delle mappe (cornice graduata) e alle delimitazioni areali presenti su entrambe le carte e i punti di intersezione con le traiettorie dei pozzi verticali"
"Entrambe le cartografie fornite hanno scala nominale di 1:25000 e **parametratura** del reticolato geografico nel sistema Gauss-Boaga/Roma40."
It seems to refer in some way to the map projection. The Gauss-Boaga projection is a type of cylindrical projection (transverse Mercator) which is predominantly used in Italy. The Italian definition of parametratura is "Sistema di riferimento cartografico costituito da reticolo ortogonale di rette equidistanti." but I haven't found a single, concise English word or phrase to use for it. Thanks for your help.
