The indicator shows the spatial distribution of CO (Carbon monixide) emissions over Europe. The total emissions for each country are derived from the GAINS model. This is the first version of the dataset (1.0) and it has not been extensively validated yet.

The indicator shows the spatial distribution of NH3 (Ammonia) emissions over Europe. The total emissions for each country are derived from the GAINS model. This is the first version of the dataset (1.0) and it has not been extensively validated yet.

Green Infrastructure (GI) is defined as a network of high quality green spaces and other environmental features. GI includes natural and semi-natural areas, features and green spaces in rural and urban, terrestrial, freshwater, coastal and marine areas. This i...

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...

The indicator shows the spatial distribution of SO2 (Sulphur dioxide) emissions over Europe. The total emissions for each country are derived from the GAINS model. This is the first version of the dataset (1.0) and it has not been extensively validated yet.

Total quantity of PM10 emitted by human activities (100 kg/year).

Build-up areas cover the land classified as urban, industrial and abandoned urban and industrial. Besides the built-up areas, artificial areas cover the infrastructure and the green urban green leisure land classes. This indicator gives artificial areas per in...

Historical population data from 1961 to 2011, based on a project supported by the Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy (see Gløersen and Lüer, 2013, population data collection for European local administrative units from 1960 onwards).  It contain...

This indicator sums up populations issued from LUISA model runs at a specified administrative level.

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 urbanization projections. T...

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

This indicator measures the total number of people exposed to an annual mean concentrations of PM10 exceeding 30 microgram /m3 of air. PM10 is one of the main pollutants emitted by household and (to a lower extent) commercial and institutional fuel combustion,...

Population weighted density refers to a metric which measures the density at which the average citizen lives. It is calculated by taking weighted average of the density of all parcels of land that make up a city, with each parcel weighted by its population (us...

The indicator shows the spatial distribution of PM2.5 (sub-25µm particulate matter in 100 kg/year) emissions over Europe.

Historical (observations) data and projections (modelled) of total population per metro region. Historical regional data were extracted from EUROSTAT's online database and missing data were calculated in order to complete the historical series. Projection dat...

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.

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 urbanization projections. T...

The indicator first identifies the minimum number of public transport stops that could serve 80% of a city’s total population, and second computes the average distance between the identified stops. It finally normalizes the multiplication of these two values w...

Share of the land classified as urban, industrial and commercial and urban green leisure. The indicator represents a percentage (%) of residential, industrial and commercial areas over total area.
