This dataset includes the locations of the monitoring sites of the EMFF 8.3.1 Project.

This layer shows the agglomeration defined for Malta according to the requirements of Directive 2002/49/EC relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise. This is the area for which strategic noise maps are produced.

This dataset consists of findings of the survey work carried out for an Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) - Tender / Advert No. 101 / 2013, which specifies the requirements for an environmental monitoring survey in the SE Aquaculture Zone in Malta. The survey campaign occurred in 2014 following the same methodology used in previous surveys (2006, 2008, 2010). The purpose of the study was to analyse the seabed typology on the basis of grain-size values obtained from the various sediment sampling stations.This data was included as part of the dataset used for one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project. This data was funded by of one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project.

These datasets were manipulated and produced in aggregated maps by showing the intensity of VMS (and not the effort) by a methodology used in the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture. Since most of the vessels are under 12 m and have no VMS, these maps represents only a fraction of the vessels - 24% of the vessels targeting dolphinfish (lampuki). For this datasets of vessel trips targeting dolphinfish, at a speed of 4-5knots (indicative of hauling) was taken into consideration. This data was funded by of one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project.

Flood Hazard Areas for the Maltese Island as reported under the requirements of the Floods Directive.

Flood Risk Areas for the Maltese Island as reported under the Floods Directive.

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geomorphological descriptions. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Coverage is provided for the main Maltese Islands. The artificial geology theme describes the main areas of man-made (anthropogenic) materials and workings. The data are available in vector format (containing the geometry of each feature linked to a database record describing their attributes) as ESRI shapefiles.

The Folds theme provides information on the structural bedrock geology of the Maltese islands. It was produced from the geological resurvey of the Maltese Islands undertaken in 2021 and 2022. This map depict localised structural folding of bedrock. The map features represent the fold axis of the feature.

This dataset represents the mean sea level and perched groundwater bodies of the Maltese islands.

This dataset represents the WFD monitoring stations for the purpose of status assessment in groundwater and surface water bodies

Location of Groundwater Monitoring Network forming part of the Operational Groundwater Monitoring Network as part of the Water Framework Directive

Groundwater Protection Zone

This dataset consists of part of the Strategic Proposals and Marine Objectives as published in the Strategic Plan for the Environment and Development (SPED). It shows the Harbour Approach routes and communication infrastructure

HB.D1_6_Posidonia_extent

Land Use Attribute (LUA) map created by the Planning Authority for the European Environmental Agency (EEA). This LUA will be used as information for the EEA's CLC+ Instance, the LULUCF. This land use map was created by the PA in December 2021. Land use classes and class priorities were as designated by the EEA. The LUA layer uses national datasets from both the PA and other government entities.

This dataset consists of part of the Strategic Proposals and Marine Objectives as published in the Strategic Plan for the Environment and Development (SPED). It shows the classification of the landscape into Areas of Landscape Protection and Areas of High Landscape Protection. The data is to be considered as strategic and for indicative purposes only. It should not be used for direct interpretation.

This layer indicates the location of the air monitoring station for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons as requested by Directive 2004/107/EC

Every year the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture (DFA) issues a call for applications (together with a set of conditions) for those vessels interested to lay Fishing Aggregation Devices (FADs). This data was included as part of the dataset used for one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project.

Location of Hardstone and Softstone Licenced quarries in the Maltese islands

The area covered by the sewage treatment plants per GPS coordinates. Agglomerations data is included as attributes to this layer.
