EuroRegionalMap 2019 (ERM 2019), Jan. 2019

EuroRegionalMap (ERM) is a Pan-European topographic vector dataset at scale 1:250000, that is, seamless and harmonized across boundaries. It is produced in cooperation by the National Mapping Agencies of the participating countries (NMCAs) using official national databases.

Thematic layers: Administrative Boundaries (BND), Hydrography (HYDRO), Miscellaneous (MISC), Named Location (NAME), Settlement (POP), Transportation (TRANS), Vegetation and Soils (VEG) as well as Points of Interest.

This metadata refers to the version 2019 of ERM, with the general reference for the supply being December 2018. The dataset is provided both in GDB and SHP formats. Main changes with respect to versions ERM v11.0 and v11.1 are:

- The administrative boundaries have been updated using EBM 2019 as data source. Some countries (Great Britain, Moldova and Romania) have slightly adapted them so to fit with the topographical features of ERM.

- Update of transportation, settlement, vegetation themes.

- Data from Ukraine as well as French Guiana (GF), Guadeloupe (GP), Martinique (MQ), Reunion (RE), Mayotte (YT), Saint Barthélemy (BL) and Saint Martin (MF) as overseas departments/collectivities of France belonging to the European Union are included in ERM 2019.

For more information about the data product specifications please refer to the documents "ERM_2019_DataSpecification_EuroStat.pdf", "ERM_2019_TechnicalGuide.pdf" and "ERM_Eurostat_Lineage_ERM_2019.pdf" provided with the dataset under the link "Documents".

IMPORTANT NOTE: This dataset is only to be used internally in the EEA, for the purposes and under the conditions stated under the "Resource Constraints" elements of this metadata file and on the document "LicenseConditions.pdf" provided with this dataset under the link "Documents". This metadata has been slightly adapted from the original metadata file provided by EuroGeographics and is to be used only for internal EEA purposes. For reference, the original metadata file created by EuroGeographics is provided together with the dataset under "Documents" link ("ERM_Eurostat_Metadata_ERM_2019.xml" within the "Metadata").

      Use limitation

      The Commission will store the geographic data set on a central server that is accessible by Commission staff. Eurostat will distribute parts or the entire data within the Commission, to the EU Executive Agencies and to subcontractors. The Commission is authorised to use the geographic data as follows: (1) As geographic reference, i.e. creating a geographical context for other data. (2) For the production of maps, publications, posters, presentations and statistical analysis. (3) For deriving new geographic datasets by applying data manipulation procedures, e.g. combining different geographic datasets, generalisation procedures including smoothing and dropping of spatial features, adding new attribute information. Examples of derived geographic data are the NUTS map or the Trans European Transport Network. (4) For distributing the geographic data within the Commission as well as to the public in the form of publications, posters, presentations, derived analysed statistical data and derived geographic datasets. (5) For inclusion of the geographic data as map services in other applications provided that it will not possible to extract the original geographic data. (6) For spatial analysis and for mapping of results of these analysis.

      The license conditions are spelled out in the "LicenseConditions.pdf" document provided together with the dataset.

      INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS: The Commission is authorized to distribute derived geographic data and other derived products, if (1) The original geometry is generalised to the equivalent of a scale of 1:1000000 or smaller, applying the same quality principles in terms of resolution and accuracy as for the original geographic data or if the content of information in terms of number of features is less or equal to 20% of the number of features in the original geographic data (for the data extent relevant to the data to be distributed), (2) The data is not used for commercial purpose and, (3) The source is acknowledged. More information about the acknowledgement of the source or metadata is given in the document "LicenseConditions.pdf" provided with the dataset.
