GISCO - Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics 2021 (NUTS 2021), May 2021

The 'GISCO NUTS 2021' data set represents the NUTS 2021 regulation and statistical regions by means of multipart polygon, polyline and point topology. The NUTS geographical information is completed by attribute tables and a set of cartographic help lines to better visualize multipart polygonal regions. The NUTS nomenclature is a hierarchical classification of statistical regions defined by Eurostat. The NUTS classification subdivides the EU economic territory into 3 statistical levels. The NUTS 2021 classification has been established through the Commission Delegated Regulation 2019/1755, which entered into force on 8th August 2019 and applies from 1st January 2021. A non official NUTS-like classification has been defined for the EFTA countries and the candidate countries. At present, six scale ranges (100K, 1M, 3M, 10M and 20M, 60M) are maintained in the GISCO geodatabase. The polygon and boundary classes delineate the regions, while the points provide an anchor for each region. Associated tables contain basic information such as the name of the region. The public data set will be available at 1M, 3M, 10M, 20M, 60M, while the full data set at 100K is restricted. The data set covers EU Member States, EFTA countries, EU candidate countries and the UK. Following the departure of the UK from the European Union, the UK is no longer flagged as an EU Member State but retains its place in the NUTS and statistical regions data set. This dataset (NUTS_2021) is derived from the EuroBoundary Map 2020 (EBM2020) from Eurogeographics as well as GISCO NUTS 2016 (from Türkiye). The list of NUTS2021 codes including changes with respect to NUTS2016 is available on https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/documents/345175/629341/NUTS2021.xlsx. The public metadata for NUTS 2021 released by Eurostat is available here: https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/distribution/v2/nuts/nuts-2021-metadata.xml. This revision (May 2021) includes minor changes in the dataset such as (see https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/distribution/v2/nuts/nuts-2021-release-notes.txt): * 2020-10-05 Point snapping is disabled in all datasets, number of decimals increased for 01M datasets. * 2020-11-18 Inclusion of Jan Mayen and Svalbard in to Norways Statistical Regions. Amendment to Serbia NUTS BN line status. * 2020-12-05 Fixed broken utf-8 encoding. * 2021-03-15 Added LAU 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015,2020 * 2021-04-26 Fixed country labels 2001, 2006 (incorrect Kosovo coordinates) IMPORTANT NOTE: Additional information, including the conditions of use and acknowledgement notice is included in the document provided with the dataset "GISCO NUTS 2021 Additional Information.pdf". Public access to this data set is restricted due to intellectual property rights. It shall only be used internally by the EEA, its ETCs and subcontractors working on behalf of the EEA. This metadata has been slightly adapted from the original metadata information provided by Eurostat (European Commission) and is to be used only for internal EEA purposes.

WISE WFD Reference Spatial Datasets reported under Water Framework Directive 2016 - INTERNAL VERSION - version 1.9, Sep. 2025

The dataset contains information on the European river basin districts, the river basin district sub-units, the surface water bodies and the groundwater bodies delineated for the 2nd River Basin Management Plans (RBMP) under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) as well as the European monitoring sites used for the assessment of the status of the above mentioned surface water bodies and groundwater bodies. This data set is available only for internal use of the European Commission and the European Environment Agency. Please use the "PUBLIC VERSION": https://sdi.eea.europa.eu/catalogue/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/6f122aa0-5677-47c3-a081-f6b14b87d81b for external use. The information was reported to the European Commission under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) reporting obligations. The dataset compiles the available spatial data related to the 2nd RBMPs due in 2016 (hereafter WFD2016). See http://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/715 for further information on the WFD2016 reporting. See also https://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/766 for information on the Environmental Quality Standards Directive - Preliminary programmes of measures and supplementary monitoring. Where available, spatial data related to the 3rd RBMPs due in 2022 (hereafter WFD2022) was used to update the WFD2016 data. See https://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/780 for further information on the WFD2022 reporting. Note: * This dataset has been reported by the member states. The subsequent QC revealed some problems caused by self-intersections elements. Data in GPKG-format should be processed using QGIS.

Quantitative und qualitative Bewertung unterschiedlicher Systeme für die Erfassung von Altpapier

Tendenzen am internationalen Altpapiermarkt lassen befürchten, dass die zukünftig von der europäischen Papierindustrie benötigten Altpapiermengen nicht in der erforderlichen Menge und in der gewohnten Qualität zur Verfügung stehen und dass sich diese Entwicklung negativ auf die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Altpapiereinsatzes auswirkt. Vor diesem Hintergrund gewinnt die Erschließung nationaler Reserven für das Aufkommen an Altpapier in den Ländern der Europäischen Gemeinschaft einen höheren Stellenwert. Während in Deutschland mit 75 Prozent die weltweit höchste Rücklaufquote von Altpapier erreicht wurde, liegt diese Kennziffer in Ländern mit einem hohen Papierverbrauch wie Großbritannien, Italien, Frankreich und Spanien derzeit lediglich zwischen 47 und 54 Prozent. Durch die Einführung geeigneter Sammelsysteme kann sowohl Einfluss auf die Menge als auch auf Qualitätsparameter des erfassten Altpapiers genommen werden. Dies trägt zur Senkung der Sortierkosten bei. Ziel des Projektes ist eine Leistungsbewertung von Systemen zur Erfassung von Altpapieren aus haushaltnahen Anfallstellen in Deutschland. Durch die Projektbearbeitung werden Kennziffern für die realisierbaren Erfassungsmengen und die stoffliche Zusammensetzung der erfassten Altpapiere (grafische Altpapiere, sonstige Altpapiere, papierfremde Bestandteile) in Abhängigkeit von der Besiedlungsstruktur der Entsorgungsgebiete ermittelt und miteinander verglichen. Weiterhin wird untersucht, ob Sammelsystem und Besiedlungsstruktur unterschiedliche Einflüsse auf ausgewählte technologische Gebrauchswerteigenschaften der erfassten Altpapiere ausüben. Die Effizienz der Erfassungssysteme und die Qualität des dort erfassten Altpapiers werden bewertet. Daraus können Empfehlungen für Steigerungsmöglichkeiten abgeleitet werden.

Algentoxine in europäischen Gewässern

Im Oktober 2002 fand in Dresden das kick-off meeting für das Europäische Projekt Barriers against cyanotoxins in drinking water statt. Damit übernimmt das TZW die Koordinatorfunktion für ein länderübergreifendes europäisches Projekt, welches durch die EU-Kommission im Verbund des 5. Rahmenprogramms europäischer Forschung gefördert wird. Das Projekt hat zum Ziel, die Forschungsergebnisse von 10 europäischen Einrichtungen zu Fragen des Vorkommens und der Eliminierung toxischer Algenmetaboliten zusammenzuführen, um daraus für Europa relevante, aber auch für Länder der südlichen Hemisphäre entscheidende Erkenntnisse in Bezug die Trinkwasseraufbereitung abzuleiten. Partner des TZW bei diesem Projekt sind die nachfolgend aufgeführten Institute: University of Dundee (Großbritannien), Eidgenössische Anstalt für Wasserversorgung, Abwasserreinigung und Gewässerschutz (EAWAG, Schweiz), Institute of Water & Environment (DHI, Dänemark), Universidad de Extremadura (Spanien), Water Research Center (WRc, Großbritannien), Kiwa NV - Keuringsinstituut voor Waterleidingartikelen (Niederlande), Aabo Akademi University (Finnland), Universidade do Algarve (Portugal) sowie die University of Lodz (Polen). Das Konsortium vereint somit Fachinstitute der aquatischen Forschung und der Wassertechnologie. Europaweit konnten bei der Vorbereitung des Projektes mehr als 30 Nachnutzer gewonnen werden. Dazu zählen Fachbehörden und vor allen Dingen Wasserversorgungsunternehmen. Das Projekt erhebt den Anspruch, eine breite Öffentlichkeit zu erreichen. Zu diesem Zweck wurden zwei Internet-Seiten eingerichtet. Unter http://www.cyanotoxic.com sind die Projektstruktur, die wesentlichen Projektziele und die geplanten Arbeitsschritte abzufragen. Zudem werden in Berichtsform die erreichten Ergebnisse dargestellt. Ein weiterer zentraler Punkt des Projektes ist die in den folgenden Jahren aufzubauende Internet-Plattform. Diese Information ist unter http://www.cyanobacteria-platform.com abzurufen. Das Ziel dieser Informationsseite ist es, die europäische Situation hinsichtlich der Belastung der Trinkwasserversorgung dienender Gewässer mit Cyanobakterien darzustellen.

Nationally designated areas

The European inventory of Nationally designated areas holds information about designated areas and their designation types, which directly or indirectly create protected areas. The Nationally designated areas is the official source of protected area information from the 38 European member countries to the World Database of Protected Areas (WDPA). The Nationally designated areas data can be queried online in the European Nature Information System (EUNIS). Two versions of the public dataset are provided. The full dataset includes the entire geographical coverage including nationally designated areas in overseas entities. The European dataset excludes the overseas entities. The datasets are accompanied by tabular data which 1) includes information on the nationally designated sites and designated boundaries for public dissemination; and 2) contains information about designation types and the national and international legislative instruments, which directly or indirectly create protected designated areas in Europe.

EMEP grids reprojected by EEA

The original EMEP grids have been reprojected into the European standard projection in order to facilitate re-use of EMEP information on air emissions, deposition and critical loads in EEA map products. Organisations responsible for delivering national data to EMEP should always use the grid in polar stereographic projection as provided by EMEP (http://www.emep.int/grid/index.html). EEA has reprojected the grid used by EMEP for analyses on air emissions (150*150 km2 and 50*50 km2 grids covering Europe)

Geographic Information System of the European Commission (GISCO) - full database, May 2021

GISCO (Geographic Information System of the COmmission) is responsible for meeting the European Commission's geographical information needs at three levels: the European Union, its member countries, and its regions. In addition to creating statistical and other thematic maps, GISCO manages a database of geographical information, and provides related services to the Commission. Its database contains core geographical data covering the whole of Europe, such as administrative boundaries, and thematic geospatial information, such as population grid data. Some data are available for download by the general public and may be used for non-commercial purposes.
