This interactive data viewer provides accounts of imperviousness, i.e. land surface sealing status in Europe (EEA39 and EU27+UK) for the year 2018. Sealing is measured by the high resolution (10m) dataset "Imperviousness "of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. The viewer facilitates the understanding and assessment of soil sealing, which can be queried by administrative region or the degree of urbanisation as well as by ecological units such as floodplains and coastal zones or protected areas. All disaggregated assessment level allows the query of countries and land cover classes as well.
Based on common template, EEA has analysed the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service Corine Land cover data for 2000-2018. The set of interactive dashboards provide graphs and maps with concise characterization of land cover changes in the EEA38 member and collaborating countries.
Ecosystem Extent Accounts are derived from the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service Corine Land Cover datasets every six years from 2000 till 2018. They describe the extent of various ecosystem types in the EEA38+UK region and how they change over time.
