Where the data comes from

ARCGIS · bio.discomap.eea.europa.eu

Merestone asks this service live for the area on screen. Nothing is copied or stored beyond a short cache.

This layer is drawn from the European Environment Agency's annual return of what Greece reports, not from a live service of the national body itself. A boundary changed this year appears here when the next return is published.
