INSPIRE - Annex III Theme Species Distribution - Habitats Directive - Habitat Distribution 1 km grid (Period 2013 - 2018)
This dataset was reported by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg under the Habitats Directive for period 2013 - 2018.
The Birds and Habitats Directives form the cornerstones of EU biodiversity policy. They provide a strong legislative framework for all EU countries to protect the most valuable and threatened biodiversity. Together, the two directives have also created the Natura 2000 network – which is now the largest coordinated network of protected areas in the world.
The Habitats Directive aims to protect over a thousand species, including mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish invertebrates, and plants, and 230 characteristic habitat types.
Every six years, Member States must report to the Commission on the conservation status of species and habitat types protected under the Habitats Directive that are present on their territory. Several scientific parameters are used to assess their status (good, poor, bad) across their natural range within the EU, and not just in protected areas.
The results are published, together with the reporting on bird species under the Birds Directive in a ‘State of Nature in the European Union’ report. The last report, published in 2020, presents the results of the 3rd reporting cycle for the period 2013–2018.
