EEA geospatial data catalogue
Main ports of Europe, Jun. 2020
The present layer contains the main European ports, including: Core and Comprehensive Ports from the TEN-T network, other ports of relevance (handling more than 1,000,000 tons per year or with a traffic higher than 1,000,000 passengers per year, following Eurostat Statistics 2017) and main fishing ports (with more than 100 fishing vessels registered, according to the Fleet Register of the European Union).
The dataset has been prepared in the context of the development of the first European Maritime Transport Environmental Report (to be published as an EMSA-EEA report in 2021), and has been derived from a database created in 2019 within the LOOP-Ports project ( https://www.loop-ports.eu/).
