Reference layer of receiving areas
• Quality checked spatial data
• Cross-checked with UWWTD DB (receiving areas)
• Harmonized approach to visualisation of MSs datasets
• Basis (background layer) for thematic maps

Summary of QA/QC of shapefiles
(1)
• Data inconsistency (shape-files vs DB)
– Coding
– Names
– Matching data in shp and DB

Summary of QA/QC of shapefiles
(2)
• Diverse approach in designationvisualization
– Catchments reported as sensitive areas
– Only sensitive areas reported – no catchments
(rivers, lakes)

Summary of QA/QC of shapefiles
(3)
• Incorrect use of geometry types/topology
– Catchments reported/visualised as line
features
– Gaps between catchments, blank areas in
layers
• Reference system
– Reference inconsistent layers in one dataset
– Recommended ref.system ETRS 89 not used

Harmonization (……is it possible??)
• Harmonization under limiting conditions of
diverse designation…
• Polygon features (namely catchments) – main
feature of the reference layer
• Line features (rivers)- „supplementary“ feature

Harmonization (……is it possible??)
• ETRS-89 coordinate system
• based on harmonized country boundaries layer
scaled 1:250 000 (ERM)
• based on spatial datasets compiled in
accordance to GIS guidance document –annex
13

Guidance document for reporting
geographical data under the
UWWTD
• Update under development to be ready for
•
•
upcoming reporting exercise
Slight modifications in paragraphs on format,
data dictionary
New- use of country boundary shape-files and
predefined (empty) shapefiles for each type of
receiving areas as TEMPLATES for reporting
receiving areas

Next steps
• GIS data correction
• Compilation of corrected GIS data
• Map of receiving areas
