The present layer contains the main European ports, including: Core and Comprehensive Ports from the TEN-T network, other ports of relevance (handling more than 1,000,000 tons per year or with a traffic higher than 1,000,000 passengers per year, following Eurostat Statistics 2017) and main fishing ports (with more than 100 fishing vessels registered, according to the Fleet Register of the European Union). The dataset has been prepared in the context of the development of the first European Maritime Transport Environmental Report (to be published as an EMSA-EEA report in 2021), and has been derived from a database created in 2019 within the LOOP-Ports project (https://www.loop-ports.eu/).

This raster dataset represents the input of microbial pathogens along the European coastlines. The pressure layer was created using three different datasets rasterized using the EEA 10 km grid: urban agglomerations reported under the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (2017), EMODnet dataset of ports lying on the sea coast together with passenger information (annual average 2006-2016) and Intestinal enterococci and Escherichia coli data at bathing sites as measured under the Bathing Water Directive reporting obligation (average 2008-2016). All three datasets were then classified into four classes, aggregated and classified again (quantile classes between 0 and 1, with the latter being the highest pathogen pressure). This dataset has been prepared for the calculation of the combined effect index, produced for the ETC/ICM Report 4/2019 "Multiple pressures and their combined effects in Europe's seas" available on: https://www.eionet.europa.eu/etcs/etc-icm/etc-icm-report-4-2019-multiple-pressures-and-their-combined-effects-in-europes-seas-1.

EuroGlobalMap is a topographic dataset that covers the EU, Andorra, Croatia, Faroe Islands, Georgia, Greenland, Iceland, Kosovo, Liechtenstein, North Macedonia, Moldova, Monaco, Norway, San Marino, Serbia, Switzerland, Ukraine and Vatican at the scale 1:1 Million. It is produced in cooperation by the National Mapping Agencies of Europe, using official national databases. Thematic layers: Administrative Boundaries, Water network, Transport Network, Settlements and Named Locations. This metadata refers to the version 10 of EGM of full Europe. For more information about the data product specifications and changes with respect to the previous version of this dataset (EGM v9), please refer to the documents EGM_Specification_v10.pdf, EGM_UserGuide_v10.pdf and EGM_Changes_v10.pdf provided with the dataset (DOCUMENTS.zip). This metadata has been slightly adapted from the original metadata file provided by EuroGeographics and is to be used only for internal EEA purposes. For reference, the metadata file created by EuroGeographics is provided together with the dataset ("EGM_v10_Metadata.xsl" within the "METADATA.zip")

EuroRegionalMap (ERM) is a Pan-European topographic vector dataset at scale 1:250000, that is seamless and harmonized across boundaries. It is produced in cooperation by the National Mapping Agencies of the participating countries (NMCAs) using official national databases. Thematic layers: Administrative Boundaries (BND), Hydrography (HYDRO), Miscellaneous (MISC), Named Location (NAME), Settlement (POP), Transportation (TRANS), Vegetation and Soils (VEG) as well as Points of Interest. This metadata refers to the version 11.1 of ERM. For more information about the data product specifications and changes with respect to the previous version of this dataset (ERM v11 and ERMv10), please refer to the documents "ERM_v11-1_DataSpecification_EuroStat.pdf", "ERM_v11_TechnicalGuide.pdf" and "ERM(EC)_v11.1_Lineage_FullEurope.doc" provided with the dataset. Main changes with respect to these previous versions are that the NMCAs updated BND, HYDRO, MISC and NAME thematic layers, and that the Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport (DG MOVE) of the European Commission identified the Trans-European Transport Network for roads, railways, airports, ports and the watercourse system. This metadata has been slightly adapted from the original metadata file provided by EuroGeographics and is to be used only for internal EEA purposes.

It is produced in cooperation by the National Mapping Agencies of the participating countries (NMCAs) using official national databases. Thematic layers: Administrative Boundaries (BND), Hydrography (HYDRO), Miscellaneous (MISC), Named Location (NAME), Settlement (POP), Transportation (TRANS), Vegetation and Soils (VEG) as well as Points of Interest. This metadata refers to the version 2019 of ERM, with the general reference for the supply being December 2018. The dataset is provided both in GDB and SHP formats. Main changes with respect to versions ERM v11.0 and v11.1 are: - The administrative boundaries have been updated using EBM 2019 as data source. Some countries (Great Britain, Moldova and Romania) have slightly adapted them so to fit with the topographical features of ERM. - Update of transportation, settlement, vegetation themes. - Data from Ukraine as well as French Guiana (GF), Guadeloupe (GP), Martinique (MQ), Reunion (RE), Mayotte (YT), Saint Barthélemy (BL) and Saint Martin (MF) as overseas departments/collectivities of France belonging to the European Union are included in ERM 2019.
