Additional information
The map presents fragmentation increase after outliers have been removed (less than 5 percentile and more than 90 percentile). Fragmentation was calculated for the years 2009, 2012 and 2015 using the effective mesh size method.
The map covers the EEA-39 member countries. Due to poor data coverage of fragmentation geometries for this period the following countries have been omitted: Cyprus, Iceland, Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Cyprus, North Macedonia, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Turkey.
