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.

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.

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/

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

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

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.

An object oriented geospatial database of the Maltese Islands. This dataset reflects structures and other features which sit upon the earth, such as buildings.

Live births resident in Malta includes all babies whose parent(s) is(are) resident in Malta at the time of birth. Therefore the definition excludes babies born to mothers who are resident abroad.

This layer shows the siting of the continuous air monitoring stations where air quality is measured according to the requirements of Directive 2008/50/EC.

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.
