The waters of the Naviglio canal cut directly through the eastern Lower Brescian Plain, shaping the flat landscape around Ghedi. However, this municipality of just over 18,300 residents is best known for its airspace rather than its waterways.
Ghedi Air Base serves as the headquarters for the Italian Air Force's 6th Wing, comprising the 102nd "Giuseppe Cenni", 154th, and 155th flying groups. The complex is also home to the Brescia Ghedi weather station, a crucial node for atmospheric data.
