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

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.

According to the requirements of Directives 2008/50/EC and 2004/107/EC with respect to the minimum number of sampling points and the assessment regimes, the data set consists of two zones in the Maltese territory, the Air Monitoring Agglomeration and the Air Quality Monitoring Zone in which all main pollutants are being monitored. A third zone covering the monitoring of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) is also included in the data set.

This dataset includes results for the BENTIX, CARLIT and PREI indices. Such data was collected under the EMFF 8.3.1 Project. The monitoring was undertaken in line with Malta's monitoring factsheets for the MSFD Directive.

This dataset describes location and area cover for Lithophyllum bissoides platforms along the Maltese coast. Such data was collected under the EMFF 8.3.1 Project. The monitoring was undertaken in line with Malta's monitoring factsheets for the MSFD Directive.

This dataset includes data for % cover of rhodoliths located in the NE of Malta. Such data was collected under the EMFF 8.3.1 Project. The monitoring was undertaken in line with Malta's monitoring factsheets for the MSFD Directive.

The information gathered is part of Descriptor 1 of Commission Decision 2017/848/EU: specifically D1C6 (pelagic habitats). Plankton communities constitute an important component of such water column habitats, forming the base of marine foodwebs. The composition of these communities can provide a good indication of the status of pelagic ecosystems, also because plankton responds to anthropogenic pressures, in particular nutrient enrichment. In fact, this dataset includes a list of phytoplankton and zooplankton up to the lowest possible taxonomic scale and includes a count of abundance.
