EuroBoundaryMap (EC) 2021

EuroBoundaryMap provides a European geographic database for administrative and statistical regions that will be maintained at the source level by the National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies (NMCAs), and by providing harmonized access conditions for this geographic information within the framework of EuroGeographics. EBM (1:100000) offers the combined strength of detailed European administrative units and linkages to the corresponding LAU and NUTS codes.

Restrictions on access and use

Use limitation: The Commission will store the geographic data set on a central server that is accessible by Commission staff. Eurostat will distribute parts or the entire data within the Commission, to the EU Executive Agencies and to subcontractors. The Commission is authorised to use the geographic data as follows: (1) As geographic reference, i.e. creating a geographical context for other data. (2) For the production of maps, publications, posters, presentations and statistical analysis. (3) For deriving new geographic datasets by applying data manipulation procedures, e.g. combining different geographic datasets, generalisation procedures including smoothing and dropping of spatial features, adding new attribute information. Examples of derived geographic data are the NUTS map or the Trans European Transport Network. (4) For distributing the geographic data within the Commission as well as to the public in the form of publications, posters, presentations, derived analysed statistical data and derived geographic datasets. (5) For inclusion of the geographic data as map services in other applications provided that it will not possible to extract the original geographic data.For spatial analysis and for mapping of results of these analysis.

Access constraints: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS: The Commission is authorized to distribute derived geographic data and other derived products, if (1) The original geometry is generalised to the equivalent of a scale of 1:3000000 or smaller, applying the same quality principles in terms of resolution and accuracy as for the original geographic data or if the content of information in terms of number of features is less or equal to 20% of the number of features in the original geographic data (for the data extent relevant to the data to be distributed), (2) The data is not used for commercial purpose and, (3) The source is acknowledged.
