Data

Data Level of compliance Note Information costs Handling costs Created on Last updated on
Riparian Zones Land Cover / Land Use Fully Used for plausibility checks and error detection. Oct. 11, 2018, 12:47 p.m. June 23, 2022, 12:20 p.m.
OpenStreetMap Partially Used for plausibility checks and error detection. Only partially compliant due to heterogenous completeness and quality. Oct. 11, 2018, 12:45 p.m. June 23, 2022, 12:20 p.m.
High Resolution Layers - Water & Wetness Fully Useful for derivation of Water & Wetness Probability Index (WWPI). Oct. 15, 2018, 2:06 p.m. June 23, 2022, 12:20 p.m.
Land Use and Coverage Area frame Survey (LUCAS) Partially Land Use/Cover Area Frame Statistical Survey (LUCAS) field survey data including photographs from visited points are helpful for product generation and validation. Due to insufficient coverage (only EU27) and limited timeliness only partially compliant. Oct. 5, 2018, 1:49 p.m. June 23, 2022, 12:20 p.m.
INSPIRE Annex II: Land cover Partially The level of compliance of the Dataset must be verify case by case. Coverage could be not complete. Number of thematic classes could be lower than specified in the requirement section. The timeliness could be higher than required. Dec. 18, 2020, 8:28 a.m. June 23, 2022, 12:20 p.m.
