Hi Carlos,
thank you for your reply.
I think the problem is that the import was not successful. As you see  
from data attributes,

Data attributes:
DTM_trentino_100m
Min.   :1.192e-319
1st Qu.:1.065e-314
Median :1.066e-314
Mean   :1.285e-312
3rd Qu.:2.722e-312
Max.   :4.774e-312

the elevations are not correct. I would expect values ranging between  
60 and 3500m and not from 1.192e-319 to 4.774e-312.
I think the problem lays in the import procedure during readRAST6().
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance,
Matteo
