In the North Sea Digitwin edition the data is from [http://geodata.nationaalgeoregister.nl/ Ministerie van Landbouw, Natuur en Voedselkwaliteit] and was retrieved on 2019-10. | |||

The Natura 2000 locations layer is more extensive than the Digitwin version, encompassing a broader range of protected areas. This version includes both inland and coastal regions, providing a comprehensive overview of biodiversity conservation sites. | |||

The inland geometries were simplified to 2.7% using Mapshaper. Polygons were then converted to single parts. Overlapping inland geometries were manually removed and assigned the correct type. | |||

"The dataset on Natura 2000 sites was created in 2014 by Cogea for the European Marine Observation and Data Network. It is entirely based on spatial data from the European Environmental Agency (EEA), plus additional info, links and selected EEA data joined to the feature attributes, as well as a calculation by Cogea of marine and coastal location of features. It is available for viewing and download on EMODnet - Human Activities web portal (www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu). Natura 2000 is an ecological network composed of sites designated under the Birds Directive (Special Protection Areas, SPAs) and the Habitats Directive (Sites of Community Importance, SCIs, and Special Areas of Conservation, SACs). The dataset covers the whole EU. Following the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the EU on 31 January 2020, it ceased to be part of the EEA’s institutional networks and governance. In the webmap the EEA dataset has been filtered by Cogea to show only (i) marine sites, i.e. sites with a marine area percentage higher than 0 (as calculated by the EEA) and (ii) sites that, even if not identified as marine by the EEA, intersect the EEA coastline or that are within a distance of 1 km from the coastline (using a 1 km inner buffer from the EEA coastline). In both cases the COAST_MAR field value=1. The EEA coastline dataset is available at <nowiki>https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/eea-coastline-for-analysis-2</nowiki>. Compared with the previous version, this one includes the updated dataset 'Natura 2000 End 2021', published by the EEA in April 2021. For further information (e.g. biogeographic region, directive, habitats, sites, impact, management, species and metadata) please visit the EEA's website hosting the Natura 2000 tabular data." | |||
