Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, Discharge points reported under UWWTD data call 2015 - PUBLIC VERSION, Nov. 2017 (Spatial data)

UWWTD Discharge Points, Nov. 2017 is one of the datasets produced within the frame of the reporting under 9th UWWTD Art.15 reporting period (UWWTD data call 2015). The Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD) (91/271/EEC) obliges Member States to report data on the implementation of the Directive upon request from the European Commission bi-annually. Reported data include receiving areas as designated under UWWTD, agglomerations, urban waste water treatment plants serving the agglomerations and points of discharges.

Dataset UWWTD_DischargePoints contains information on individual points of discharge from urban waste water treatment plants or collecting systems, including their coordinates of discharge, link to specific treatment plant, type of receiving area into which the effluent / wastewater is discharged, related waterbody (or river basin), information on the discharge on land and potential reuse of the treated waste water.

The discharge points layer is not used in UWWTD maps, therefore it is not included in any existing map service for the time being. The dataset is available only in tabular format through the EEA website.

Statement

Discharge points data were reported by Member states in tabular format. Spatial position of individual discharge points was specified by the geographical coordinates fields (longitude, latitude). These tabular data were checked, grouped into a common Pan-European dataset and transformed to the spatial data layer in GIS software. Discharge points with obviously wrong coordinates were removed.
