Indicator: Natura 2000 terrestrial protected area coverage
Tag: Natura2000 Barometer
Definition: Percentage of land, by Member State and at EU 27 level, covered by Natura 2000 sites designated under the EU Habitats and Birds Directives.
Unit: % of areas protected under Natura 2000 on land
Spatial coverage: EU (current composition, only continental areas and Macaronesia). For Cyprus, the value is calculated based on the European part of the island.
Time coverage: 2011-2021
Update frequency: Every year
DPSIR: Response
Other policies: None
Method: 1) Calculation of surface from the Natura 2000 data eliminating double counting of areas where Natura 2000 sites are overlapping; 2) topological controls and adjustments, other data quality controls; 3) Member States territories are taken from "EuroBoundaryMap 2020" dataset. References about these sources are available in the specific dataset's section of this catalogue.
