Water Framework Directive (WFD) River Waterbodies (RWB) are the management and reporting units for the WFD. WFD RWB is a polyline shapefile dataset which is formed from a water flow routes dataset. Waterbodies are assigned types depending on their likely WFD status classification and physical and biological characteristics (typology). This …
These are the lake waterbody polygons delineated in accordance with Guidance Document No. 9: Implementing the Geographical Information System Elements (GIS) of the Water Framework Directive (2003) and Guidance Document No. 22: Updated Guidance on Implementing the Geographical Information System (GIS) Elements of the EU Water policy (November 2008).
Dataset relating to WFD River Waterbody Approved Risk assigned to each feature by the Catchment scientists.
Dataset relating to WFD Ground Waterbody Approved Risk assigned to each feature by the Catchment scientists.
The EU Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) (WFD) establishes a framework for the protection, improvement and management of surface water and groundwater. All Groundwater Waterbodies (GWB) are represented as polygons. They are validated by scientists in the Geological Survey of Ireland and the EPA Scientists as meeting the criteria for a …
