Small Woody Features are important vectors of biodiversity and provide information on fragmentation of habitats with a direct potential for restoration while also providing a link to hazard protection and green infrastructure, amongst others. VHR_IMAGE_2021 made available in the ESA Copernicus DWH was the main data source for the detection of small woody features identifiable within the given image resolution. The Small Woody Features layer contains woody linear and patchy elements but will not be further differentiated into trees, hedges, bushes and scrub. The spatial pattern shall be limited to linear structures and isolated patches on the basis of geometric characteristics. This product is a vector dataset distributed as OGC GeoPackage files, compliant with the EEA reference grid (100km x 100km).

The Urban Atlas provides pan-European comparable land use and land cover data for Functional Urban Areas (FUA) across EEA38 countries (EU, EFTA, Western Balkan countries as well as Türkiye) and United Kingdom. The Street Tree Layer (STL) is a separate layer from the Urban Atlas 2018 LU/LC layer produced within the level 1 urban mask for each FUA. It includes contiguous rows or a patches of trees covering 500 m² or more and with a minimum width of 10 meter over 'Artificial surfaces' (nomenclature class 1) inside FUA (i.e. rows of trees along the road network outside urban areas or forest adjacent to urban areas should not be included). Urban Atlas is a joint initiative of the European Commission Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy and the Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme, with the support of the European Space Agency and the European Environment Agency.

The Coastal Zones LC/LU Change (CZC) 2012-2018 is providing the Land Cover / Land Use (LC/ LU) change for areas along the coastline of the EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom, between the reference years 2012 and 2018. The Coastal Zones product monitors landscape dynamics in European coastal territory to an inland depth of 10 km with a total area of approximately 730,000 km², with all the relevant areas (estuaries, coastal lowlands, nature reserves). The production of the coastal zone layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme, as part of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) Local Component. The Coastal Zones Change product covers a buffer zone of coastline derived from EU-Hydro v1.1. The Land Cover/Land Use (LC/LU) Change layer is extracted from Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite data and other available data. The reference years for the change are 2012 and 2018. The class definitions follow the pre-defined nomenclature on the basis of Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) typology of ecosystems (Level 1 to Level 4) and CORINE Land Cover adapted to the specific characteristics of coastal zones. The classification provides 71 distinct thematic classes with a Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) of 0.5 ha and a Minimum Mapping Width (MMW) of 10 m. The status product is available for the 2012 and 2018 reference years. This CZC dataset is distributed in vector format, in a single OGC GeoPackage file covering the area of interest.

[IS] Staðsetningar borkjarna og borsvarfs í Borkjarnasafni Náttúrufræðistofununnar. Náttúrufræðistofnun hefur það hlutverk að varðveita borkjarna sem falla til við jarðboranir víða um land við framkvæmdir eða í rannsóknaskyni. Borkjarnar og borsvarf veita innsýn í þann hluta berggrunnsins sem ekki er sýnilegur á yfirborði jarðar og eru nauðsynleg gögn við jarðvísindalegar rannsóknir, hvort sem um ræðir grunnrannsóknir eða hagnýtar rannsóknir við undirbúning mannvirkjagerðar eða nýtingar náttúruauðlinda. Safnið geymdi í lok árs 2024 um 100 kílómetra af borkjörnum auk borsvarfs úr borholum sem samtals eru yfir 470 km að lengd. Telur gagnagrunnur safnsins nú tæplega 11 þúsund kassa af borkjörnum úr um 1.800 borholum, sem og um 5.000 bakka af borsvarfi úr um 2.300 borholum. Í safninu er einnig talsverður fjöldi sýna sem tekin hafa verið úr borkjörnum og varðveitt aðskilin frá meginhluta kjarnanna.

The Drill Core Library (DCL) of the Natural Science Institute of Iceland comprises over 100 km of drill cores and large quantities of drill cuttings from scientific and applied research drilling throughout Iceland. Drill cores and drill cuttings enable us to examine those portions of the bedrock that are not exposed at the surface. They are essential sources of data for geoscientific research, both fundamental research and applied studies for construction or utilization of natural resources. The DCL includes cores from research drilling in Surtsey in 1979 and 2017, which shed remarkable light on the inner evolution of the island after the eruption, and a core from a 2 km-deep research borehole in drilled in Reyðarfjörður in 1978. The collection also includes a vast array of cores drilled in connection with the construction of tunnels and hydroelectric power plants and other research on energy resources.

Íslenska: Vetrarfuglatalningar eru ein lengsta samfellda vöktun sem stunduð hefur verið hér á landi og sú sem tekur til flestra fuglategunda. Frá upphafi hafa áhugamenn unnið þetta verk í sjálfboðavinnu og á annað hundrað manns taka þátt. Talningar fara fram á föstum dögum í kringum áramót. Markmið vetrarfuglatalninga er að safna upplýsingum um fjölda og dreifingu fugla að vetrarlagi. Talningar eru staðlaðar og nýtast til vöktunar einstakra stofna. Gögnin sýna þau svæði á Íslandi þar sem fuglar eru taldir á veturna og númersvæðanna sem eru talin. Sjá niðurstöður vetrarfuglatalninga: https://www.natt.is/is/vetrarfuglatalningar-nidurstodur English: Winter bird counts are one of the longest-running continuous monitoring efforts in Iceland and the one that covers the greatest number of bird species. From the beginning, this work has been carried out by volunteers, with around a hundred people participating. The counts take place on fixed dates around the New Year. The aim of the winter bird counts is to collect information on the number and distribution of birds during the winter. The counts are standardized and are used to monitor individual populations. The data show the areas in Iceland where birds are counted during the winter, as well as the numbered survey areas included in the counts.

Kjördæmi eru afmörkuð landsvæði sem mynda einn af grunnþáttum kosningakerfisins. Framboðslistar eru lagðir fram fyrir hvert og eitt kjördæmi þannig að kjósendur í sama kjördæminu geta valið á milli sömu framboðslistanna og kjörnir fulltrúar hljóta þar umboð sitt til þingsetu. Kjördæmaskipulagið og fjöldi kjósenda í hverju þeirra liggur til grundvallar þegar þingsætum er úthlutað eftir þingkosningar. Þar sem kjördæmaskipulagið er ráðandi fyrir vægi atkvæða kjósenda hefur það mikil áhrif á það hvaða frambjóðendur fá sæti á þingi að loknum kosningum. Kjördæmaskipulagið er því meðal þess sem oft hefur orðið að deiluefni. Þegar gerðar voru á því verulegar breytingar kostuðu þær jafnan pólitísk átök og allar hafa þær þýtt málamiðlanir milli ólíkra sjónarmiða.
