Natura 2000 data - the European network of protected sites
-
Natura 2000 is the key instrument to protect biodiversity in the European Union. It is an ecological network of protected areas, set up to ensure the survival of Europe's most valuable species and habitats. Natura 2000 is based on the 1979 Birds Directive and the 1992 Habitats Directive. The green infrastructure it provides safeguards numerous ecosystem services and ensures that Europe's natural systems remain healthy and resilient.

EEA reference grid
-
The grid is based on the recommendation at the 1st European Workshop on Reference Grids in 2003 and later INSPIRE geographical grid systems. For Europe and each country three vector polygon grid shape files, 1, 10 and 100 km, are available. For full Europe the 1 km vector grid is excluded for size reasons. The grids cover at least country borders and, where applicable, marine Exclusive Economic Zones v2.0, www.vliz.be/vmdcdata/marbound. Note that the extent of the grid into the marine area does not reflect the extent of the territorial waters.
