What this layer shows

The crest line of the sheer sea cliffs of the island of Madeira, mapped together with the cliffs themselves (Portaria 339/2019 of 31 May). Where the limit of the sea bed reaches a sheer cliff, the 50 m margin of the maritime public domain is measured from this crest (Lei 54/2005, Article 11). Indicative: it is not the official delimitation of the maritime public domain for any plot.

Madeira and the Azores

The set for working on the islands. ICNF's and APA's national layers cover the mainland only: these are the ones that answer on the islands: Natura 2000 and the national inventory of classified areas, on Madeira, Porto Santo, the Selvagens and the nine islands of the Azores. On Madeira come the regional layers: areas of potentially significant flood risk, sea cliffs, the land cadastre (still partial), the geological map, PDM zoning, landslide and fire susceptibility, coastal risks and the Santana and Porto Santo biosphere reserves. On the Azores, the Regional Government's layers: Ramsar sites, biosphere reserves, flood-risk zones, water-abstraction protection and vulnerable zones.
