WISE reference datasets already available

For the first time, WISE reference data is provided for download from EEA data service (http://dataservice.eea.europa.eu/dataservice/). This starts with datasets on River basin districts and Large rivers and large lakes. Both datasets can be used in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for analytical as well as for mapping purposes. EEA is looking forward on user feedback on this data and will maintain and enhance the reference data over the years to come. Further datasets will be published in preparation of the reporting on River Basin Management Plans.
