What does it contain?
The Natura 2000 (N2K) product is designed to support the monitoring of the state and temporal changes of grassland-rich Natura 2000 sites protected under the European Union Habitats Directive, which is essential for informing conservation decisions, creating policy, and increasing accountability for land managers. The vector-based N2K dataset is available for the reference years 2006, 2012 and 2018, with a spatial resolution of 0.5 ha and 55 thematic classes. Change maps have also been produced for the periods between the reference years.
