What does it contain?
The Land Parcel Identification System (MePAR) is a nationwide GIS system serving as the basis for area-based agricultural subsidies. It provides a standardized framework for the identification, delineation and attribute data of agricultural land parcels (MePAR blocks). This thematic layer identifies areas with slopes exceeding 17%, which are subject to strict agricultural and environmental restrictions to prevent water erosion and soil degradation, including restrictions on fertilisation and requirements for maintaining terraces.
