Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, Treatment plants reported under UWWTD data call 2019 - INTERNAL VERSION, Nov. 2020

UWWTD Treatment Plants, Nov. 2020 is one of the datasets produced within the frame of the reporting under 11th UWWTD Art.15 reporting period (UWWTD data call 2019).



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_TreatmentPlants contains urban waste water treatment plants and collecting systems without UWWTP, including their coordinates, capacity and actual load treated, type of treatment and data on the performance of plants.



This metadata refers to the internal version of the dataset, which contains all reported treatment plants, including inactive or not connected ones. Treatment plants with obviously wrong coordinates were excluded only. The public dataset is available under "Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, Treatment plants reported under UWWTD data call 2019 - PUBLIC VERSION, Nov. 2020".

Statement

Treatment plants data were reported by Member states in tabular format. Spatial position of individual treatment plants 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. Treatment plants with obviously wrong coordinates (e.g. [0,0]) were removed.

If the treatment plant coordinates were not reported, given treatment plant was not excluded (= missing information, coordinates are unknown); on the transformation from reported tabular format to the spatial point layer in ArcGIS, records with missing coordinates were not transferred to the points visible in the data layer, of course, but they are available in the attribute table and their coordinates uwwLatitude and uwwLongitude in the attribute table are NULL.
