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 locations of industrial areas which have been designated as enterprise hubs by the SPED

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.

The data on expenditure under the various social protection schemes are drawn up according to the ESSPROS (European System of integrated Social Protection Statistics) Manual issued by Eurostat. Generally, the objectives of ESSPROS are to provide a comprehensive, realistic and coherent description of social protection which: (i) covers social benefits and their financing; (ii) is geared towards international comparability; and (iii) is completely harmonised with other statistics, particularly the National Accounts, in its main concepts. Spatial ESSPROS data is showed as per capita. The total benefits expenditure obtained from the SABS database does not match that with the Treasury's Departmental Accounting System (DAS) as the latter includes welfare payments which are excluded from the SABS database. The data source used to compile the beneficiaries data is the System for the Administration of Social Benefits (SABS) database held by the Department of Social Security. Beneficiaries are grouped according to their ID card number. If a person received a particular benefit more than once in a calendar year, the records show one beneficiary. Beneficiaries obtaining more than one benefit under the same function are counted once. Beneficiaries living abroad are not included in the data.

The Family/Children function contains the following benefits: Marriage Grant, Maternity Benefit, Maternity Leave Benefit, Re-marriage Grant, Children's Allowance, Foster Care Allowance and Social Assistance for Single Parents. Spatial ESSPROS data is represented per 1000 population.

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.

Firework factories in Malta and Gozo locations.

The original data was provided by CSD in WGS 84 and subsequently transformed by ERA into ETRS89TM33. ERA has processed the data for reporting obligations emanating under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. The water column boundary for MSFD purposes shall be taken as a boundary which extends to 25 nm without prejudice to Malta's jurisdiction beyond this limit. This incorporates the WFD Coastal Waters.

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 Drifting Long Lines vessels - 7% of the vessels targeting swordfish.For this datasets of vessel trips targeting swordfish, at a speed of 2-3 knots (indicative of hauling) were taken into consideration. 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 Drifting Long Lines vessels - 59.1% of the vessels targeting Tuna.For this dataset of tuna 2-3 knots for hauling and speed were taken into consideration. This data was funded by of one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project.

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.

Major Area Place Names

The Geographical Sub-Areas (GSAs) were established under the RES-GFCM/33/2009/2 - Establishment of Geographical Sub-Areas in the GFCM area amending the resolution GFCM/31/2007/2. The dataset only shows the GSA15 which is the GSA in which the Maltese Islands are found. For all the GSAs, one must refer to the legislation mentioned above or the following website: http://www.fao.org/gfcm/data/map-geographical-subareas/en/

Data identifying observation locations (shown as points) describing the bedding orientation of bedrock units. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Coverage is provided for the main Maltese Islands. Bedrock measurements describe the orientation of bedding in terms of dip and dip-azimuth. The data are available in vector format (containing the geometry of each feature linked to a database record describing their attributes) as ESRI shapefiles.

Faults are depicted as linear features (shown as polylines) representing a structural contact between geological units; Faults are typically associated with the bedrock theme and identify a plane of movement or failure where a body of bedrock has been fractured and displaced relative to another, by a large-scale process affecting the earth's crust. 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.

Data identifying boundaries (shown as polylines) describing the contact between geological units at the margins of karstic dolines and sinkholes. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Coverage is provided for the main Maltese Islands. The data includes attribution to identify the local names, and postulated age of formation of the features (in varying levels of detail). Several modes of failure are represented by the doline/sinkholes, The boundaries therefore represent planes of structural failure or flexure. The data are available in vector format (containing the geometry of each feature linked to a database record describing their attributes) as ESRI shapefiles.

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