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...

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.

Removal by urban vegetation was calculated as the product of deposition velocity and PM10 concentration in areas covered by vegetation. Air pollutant deposition velocity was assessed following the approach proposed by Pistocchi et al. (2010) that estimates dep...

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...

The land function provision of leisure refers to the access to recreational services including cultural landscapes. The indicator Recreation Potential reflects the potential opportunities for nature based recreation activities provided from different ecosystem...

The indicator Water consumption is the result of the water use model which allocates sectorial statistical data on freshwater consumption. The level of detail of this indicator is per NUTS0 and NUTS2. Additional publications: 1. Sarah Mubareka, Joachim Maes...

The share of industrial-commercial-services areas over the total land area indicator aims to assess the proportion of land used for economic activities over the total surface area. The level of detail of this indicator is per NUTS0 and NUTS2.

Projected land-use/cover maps, 2010 - 2050.

Gross domestic product (GDP) is defined by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) as standard measure of the value of final goods and services produced by a country during a period minus the value of imports. The projected GDP in Mi...

Location accessibility indicates the travel times to the largest cities in the country or neighbouring countries. The level of detail of this indicator is per NUTS0 and NUTS2. Additional publications: 1. Jacobs-Crisioni C, Batista e Silva F, Lavalle C, et a...

Daily accessibility indicates the amount of people that live within four hours of driving from the location at hand.The level of detail of this indicator is per NUTS0 and NUTS2. Additional publications: 1. Jacobs-Crisioni C, Batista e Silva F, Lavalle C, et...

This dataset describes counterfactual public transport networks that were simulated for 36 world cities, and the aggregate data discussed in the paper in which these data are published. UNIT OF MEASURE: Meters of network length. RESOLUTION: 1:1000000. COMPLETE...

This dataset describes the inferred central role of settlements, established by repeatedly verifying if a settlement is the largest for incremental car travel time bands. UNIT OF MEASURE: Travel timebands in which settlement is largest. RESOLUTION: 1:1000000. ...

A composite indicator reflecting the relative flood risk within urban areas by taking into account the natural exposure (predicted flooded area and mean depth), and the sensitivity of the city to flooding (population and infrastructure affected).

This indicator measures the temporal concentration of tourism activity throughout the year, potentially revealing unbalanced pressure and economic activity, as well as vulnerability to demand shocks. As such, a high seasonality is potentially detrimental for s...

This indicator measures the average economic value generated per night spent at the tourist destination, revealing tourism contribution to the economy of the destination country. The average tourism expenditure was adjusted taking into account the living costs...

A functional urban area consists of a city plus its commuting zone. This was formerly known as LUZ (larger urban zone). The source for the boundaries is: EuroGeographics Association for the administrative boundaries and DG REGIO.

The LUISA Base Map 2018 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 2018 map. Compared to CORINE, the L...

This descriptor measures the average duration of stays at tourist accommodation establishments. It is calculated by dividing the total number of nights spent by the total number of tourist arrivals. Longer lengths of stay can potentially generate higher touris...
