The food and feed production indicator aims to assess the intensity of the agricultural production in Europe. The unit of measurement is thousands of tons per hectare.

The indicator reflects productivity in terms of water use, so gives a measure of a country's water use efficiency.

This indicator provides a measure of the surfaces of artificial areas per inhabitant (in square meters) for a specific year. Build-up areas correspond to land classified as urban, industrial and abandoned urban and industrial. Besides the built-up areas, artif...

Potential accessibility indicator measures the potential amount of interactions one may have at different points in space. Crucial are the amount of potential interaction destinations, which in the presented indicator is observed as number of people in destina...

This indicator estimates the capacity of urban ecosystems to provide recreational opportunities. These include a wide variety of practices ranging from walking, jogging or running in the closest green urban area.

Green Infrastructure (GI) is defined as a strategically planned and delivered network of high quality green spaces and other environmental features that are structurally and functionally “interconnected and therefore bring added benefits and are more resilient...

Removal by urban vegetation was calculated as the product of deposition velocity and NO2 concentration. Air pollutant deposition velocity was assessed following the approach proposed by Pistocchi et al. (2010) that estimates deposition velocity (DV) as a linea...

Annual rate of change in urban population proportion - proportion of the population living in Local Administrative Units - 2 (LAU2s) classified as cities, towns and suburbs. Classification of LAU2s as cities, towns and suburbs is based on the LUISA degree of u...

To simulate NO2 and PM10 at very high resolution (100 m), a Land Use Regression model (LUR) was built using pollutant concentrations for 2010 from monitoring sites as dependent variable and several other parameters (independent variables) were defined within a...

Data describing accurately aggregated travel times used to set up more accurate travel time models, given spatial interaction and aggregated interacting bodies. These have been used to improve the LUISA travel time estimations as documented in Stepniak and Jac...

Potential accessibility computed as, for each origin point, the sum of people at destinations divided by a transformation of travel time to those destinations. The transformation of travel times is through a general distance decay function.

The LUISA Base Map 2012 is a high-resolution land use/land cover map developed and produced by the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. It corresponds to a modified and improved version of the CORINE Land Cover 2012 map. Compared to CORINE, the L...

Build-up areas cover the land classified as urban, industrial and abandoned urban and industrial. Land take means the total land taken by built-up areas, in other words the amount of change in built-up areas, within a specific period. In this indicator, first ...

Build-up areas cover the land classified as urban, industrial and abandoned urban and industrial. Annual land take means the total land taken by built-up areas in a yearly basis, in other words the annual amount of change in built-up areas, within a specific p...

The indicator measures the degree to which species movements between different parts of the landscape are interrupted by barriers. The more barriers fragmenting the landscape, the more difficult will be the species movement through the landscape. This is measu...
