Hydrography (HY) Iceland is one of 12 themes in the European Location Project (ELF). The purpose of ELF is to create harmonised cross-border, cross-theme and cross-resolution pan-European reference data from national contributions. The goal is to provide INSPIRE-compliant data for Europe. A description of the ELF (European Location Project) is here: http://www.elfproject.eu/content/overview Encoding: INSPIRE version 4

Valdar breytur úr Manntalinu 2021 eru teknar saman fyrir 1 km² reiti í Reitakerfi Íslands. Breyturnar eru valdar samkvæmt Reglugerð ESB nr. 1799/2018. Öllum eru heimil afnot af efni Hagstofunnar en geta skal heimildar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Selected characteristics from the Icelandic Population and Housing Census 2021 presented in the Inspire compatible Icelandic Grid System (1 km²). The breakdowns are in line with the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1799 of 21 November 2018 on the establishment of a temporary direct statistical action for the dissemination of selected topics of the 2021 population and housing census geocoded to a 1 km² grid (OJ L 296/19, 22.11.2018).

Ræktunarsvæði er afmarkað svæði sjávar nægjanlega stórt til að rúma þann ræktunarbúnað sem notaður er á viðkomandi svæði. Yfirleitt er um að ræða línur sem strekktar eru á milli flot bauja eða sérstaka ræktunarfleka með lóðréttar ræktunarlínur fáeina metra niður undir yfirborð sjávar . Svæðið er merkt með löglegum sjómerkjum þannig að sjófarendur eiga að geta varast þau, enda einnig merkt inn sjókort Landhelgisgæslunnar. Einungis er ræktuð Bláskel (Kræklingur).

EU-Hydro is a dataset for all EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom providing photo-interpreted river network, consistent of surface interpretation of water bodies (lakes and wide rivers), and a drainage model (also called Drainage Network), derived from EU-DEM, with catchments and drainage lines and nodes. The EU-Hydro dataset is distributed in separate files (river network and drainage network) for each of the 35 major basins of the EEA38 + UK area, in GDB and GPKG formats. The production of EU-Hydro and the derived layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme.

Seamounts and knolls are ‘undersea mountains’, the former rising more than 1000 m from the seafloor. These features provide important habitats for aquatic predators, demersal deep-sea fish and benthic invertebrates. However most seamounts have not been surveyed and their numbers and locations are not well known. Previous efforts to locate and quantify seamounts have used relatively coarse bathymetry grids. Here we use global bathymetric data at 30 arc-second resolution to identify seamounts and knolls. We identify 33,452 seamounts and 138,412 knolls, representing the largest global set of identified seamounts and knolls to date. We compare estimated seamount numbers, locations, and depths with validation sets of seamount data from New Zealand and Azores. This comparison indicates the method we apply finds 94% of seamounts, but may overestimate seamount numbers along ridges and in areas where faulting and seafloor spreading creates highly complex topography. The seamounts and knolls identified herein are significantly geographically biased towards areas surveyed with shipbased soundings. As only 6.5% of the ocean floor has been surveyed with soundings it is likely that new seamounts will be uncovered as surveying improves. Seamount habitats constitute approximately 4.7% of the ocean floor, whilst knolls cover 16.3%. Regional distribution of these features is examined, and we find a disproportionate number of productive knolls, with a summit depth of o1.5 km, located in the Southern Ocean. Less than 2% of seamounts are within marine protected areas and the majority of these are located within exclusive economic zones with few on the High Seas. The database of seamounts and knolls resulting from this study will be a useful resource for researchers and conservation planners.

Strandlínulagið inniheldur bæði línu- og flákalag og er strandlína landsins sýnd auk eyja og skerja.Í fitjuklasanum is50v_strandlina_linur er strandlína landsins, eyja og skerja sýnd. Hægt er að sjá hvort línan tilheyrir eyjum eða skerjum. Í laginu is50v_strandlina_flakar er strandlína landsins, eyja og skerjar sýnd.

Eldissvæði er svæði sem úthlutað er rekstarleyfishafa. Rekstrarleyfishafi hefur þá heimild til að hafa eldisbúnað til að ala fisk innan þess svæðis skv. skilyrðum rekstrarleyfisins.

EN: Boundary of River Basin District(s) of Iceland as reported to WISE on 22.12.2018."River basin district" means the area of land and sea, made up of one or more neighbouring river basins together with their associated groundwaters and coastal waters, which is identified under Article 3(1) as the main unit for management of river basins.For further description of dataset fields and field values see GML schema here. http://dd.eionet.europa.eu/schemas/WFD2016/GML_RiverBasinDistrict_2016.xsd IS: Vatnaumdæmi Íslands miðað við skil inn í WISE upplýsingakerfið þann 22.12.2018.

ELF Transport Networks (TN) Iceland is one of 12 themes in the European Location Project (ELF). The purpose of ELF is to create harmonised cross-border, cross-theme and cross-resolution pan-European reference data from national contributions. The goal is to provide INSPIRE-compliant data for Europe. A description of the ELF (European Location Project) is here: http://www.elfproject.eu/content/overview. The transport layer contains both line and polygons. The linelayer shows the transport network but the polygon layer contains the airports. Encoding: INSPIRE version 4
