The Map Service (WFS Group) presents selected spatial data from the field of conservation of the Saarland.:Nature protected areas in Saarland: This category of protected areas are areas where special protection of nature and landscape is required in their entirety or in individual parts. Protected areas of this category are the most protected areas. In particular, wild plants or animals, biotopes or certain communities are subject to legal protection for their conservation, development, rare occurrence or scientific reasons. Currently, 121 nature reserves are protected. For which areas which detection sharpness is available, can be read from the attribute field “Acceptance scale”. The map of the nature reserves in the Saarland provides information about the currently designated nature reserves.

The map layer nature reserves can be selected in the Web Map Service Landscape Information Collection (WMS LINFOS) and displays the spatial location of the nature reserves in North Rhine-Westphalia. According to § 23(1) BNatSchG, nature reserves (NSG) are "legally binding areas in which special protection of nature and landscape in its entirety or in individual parts is required (1) for the conservation, development or restoration of biotopes or communities of certain species of wild fauna and flora, (2) for scientific, natural history or regional history reasons, or (3) because of their rarity, special character or outstanding beauty." Their designation is usually carried out by the higher nature protection authorities at the regional prefectures, occasionally also by the supreme and lower nature protection authorities of the Länder by decree or decree. From a spatial planning point of view, nature conservation has a priority function in these areas. In addition to the national parks, they form important areas for the preservation of biodiversity in Germany.
The map service represents the digital spatial data from the field of nature conservation of the Saarland.:Natural protected areas in the Saarland: This category of protected areas is areas where special protection of nature and landscape is required in their entirety or in individual parts. Protected areas in this category are the most strictly protected areas. In particular, wild plants or animals, biotopes or certain communities are placed under legal protection for their conservation, development, rare occurrences or scientific reasons. Currently, 121 nature reserves are protected. For which areas which capture sharpness is present, can be read from the attribute field “Recording Scale”. The inventory map of nature reserves in the Saarland provides information about the currently designated nature reserves.

LNRs are established in a variety of locations with very varied habitats and species. They must lie wholly within the area of jurisdiction of the local authority which declares them to be reserves. Prior to such declaration, the local authority must own or lease the site or obtain an agreement from the owner. LNRs are generally smaller than NNRs and closer to centres of population. They are frequently provided for the enjoyment and education of local people whose involvement in site management is encouraged.This dataset contains a copy of LNRs collected by Improvement Service and updated with PA codes missing from the original shapefile (2024-11-06).

SNH nature reserves (NR) are those SNH properties (owned, leased, or under agreement) it manages for nature with some provision for people to visit.
Important note: The dataset is updated daily under OpenData NRW! Pursuant to §24 BNatSchG, national parks are legally binding areas to be protected uniformly, which are large-scale, largely uncut and of particular character and meet the requirements of a nature reserve in a majority of their territory. National parks aim to ensure the most undisturbed natural processes in their natural dynamics in a large part of their territory. As far as the purpose of protection allows, national parks should also serve scientific environmental observation, natural history education and the natural experience of the population. National parks must be protected taking into account their special protection purpose as well as the exceptions offered by the spaciousness and settlement, such as nature reserves.
What do you see? This map shows the above-ground carbon stock recorded in the vegetation of nature reserves in the Netherlands. On the map are the nature reserves in the Netherlands that are covered by the Nature and Landscape subsidy scheme (SNL). What’s the value? Governments, nature managers and other interested parties for carbon sequestration will gain insight into the spread of carbon sequestration in nature. This information can be used when drawing up policy plans and other strategic planning. In addition, this map forms the basis for further studies/cards that determine potential carbon sequestration in the Dutch vegetation. Who is this important to? This map is important for policy makers, field managers and researchers involved in climate mitigation (carbon capture).
Areas in which special protection of nature and landscape is necessary for scientific, natural history, regional or cultural reasons or for the conservation of communities or biotopes of certain species of wild fauna and flora shall be protected as nature reserves. According to § 23 of the Baden-Württemberg Nature Conservation Act (NatSchG), nature reserves can also be designated because of the rarity, special character or outstanding beauty of nature and landscape. In this way, the most valuable and important biotopes of a natural area are to be preserved. In particular, endangered animal and plant species find refuges in protected areas for as undisturbed a development as possible. The responsibility for the expulsion lies with the higher nature conservation authorities. These designate nature reserves by statutory instrument. Some UIS tools offer the following geometries: - DST Local: automated property map (ALKIS) as the basis for recording. This layer contains only the spatial data that are processed by the competent authority and are in the monthly data exchange. - Service nationwide: The complete geodata of the country are available as a Web Map Service (WMS), ALKIS-compliant. In this layer, the data are merged nationally, but cannot be processed by the services. The stock is updated monthly. This data offer has been created and maintained with care. Nevertheless, defects, for example in completeness, correctness and timeliness, cannot be completely excluded.
This is a spatial dataset containing polygons representing areas of vegetation mapped within the Moor House National Nature Reserve in the northern Pennines, England. The map was created by staff of The Nature Conservancy in the 1960s.
On the basis of maps of the protected area documentation, the LUNG digitalisation templates were drawn in a scale of 1:50.000, on the basis of which a shape file was created. It should be noted that the scale-related inaccuracy was already 50 m. Due to the two-stage transfer process from the ordinance cards (e.g.Corridor maps or forest base maps based on the digitising template into the shapefile probably even resulted in greater inaccuracies than 50 m. In the following years, digitising templates were gradually created in a scale of 1:10.000, on the basis of which the quality of the shape file was improved by on-screen digitisation against the background of topographic maps, later also orthophotos. For the newly designated NSGs since 2006, digital geometries are already being created as part of the designation process on behalf of the Ministry of the Environment/Ministry of Agriculture, Environment and Consumer Protection (as regulator). These will be integrated into the data collection of the NSG’s areas after designation. The areas of the individual NSGs are therefore available in this database with varying accuracy. For the precise determination of the boundaries of a nature reserve, the maps belonging to the Regulation (i.e., the corridor maps after 1990) must always be used. With the law on the Biosphere Reserve River Landscape Elbe Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Biosphere Reserve-Elbe-Law – BRElbeG M-V) of 15 January 2015, all nature reserves within the scope of this Act have been repealed on 1.2.2015 (entry into force of the BRElbeG M-V). At the same time, care zones have been identified that are comparable to protected areas in terms of protection intensity and regulatory content. The care zones (PZ) of the Biosphere Reserve River Landscape Elbe M-V are therefore managed in the shape file of the nature reserves. [Note: In the Biosphere Reserves Schaalsee and Southeast-Rügen, which were built earlier, the core and care zones are explicitly designated as a nature reserve, so there are formal nature reserves within these biosphere reserves.]

Report for the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. NSW NPWS, Sydney. The composition and extent of the present vegetation within Woggoon (6,565 ha) and Tollingo (3,232 ha) Nature Reserves in the Central West Region of NSW, is described and mapped from intensive quadrat samples, field traverses and aerial photograph interpretation. Woggoon and Tollingo Nature Reserves represent the largest eastern-most mallee remnants in NSW. Four vegetation communities are described and 152 species (158 taxa) of vascular plants recorded from 44 families, 21 of which are at their geographical limits or regionally restricted. These include four species listed as restricted plants in the Western Division of NSW. A small proportion of species (7%) are exotic. Both reserves are similar, but not identical in vegetation structure and composition, with several taxa unique to each reserve." VIS_ID 1007

A National Park Integral Reserve is part of the Protected Natural Areas (ENP) that are areas designated or managed within an international, Community, national or local framework with a view to achieving specific objectives for the conservation of the natural heritage. A “full reserve” may be established in the heart of a national park to ensure, in a scientific goal, greater protection of certain elements of fauna and flora. Wilderness National Park Reserves are established taking into account human occupation and its characteristics. Full reservations are not introduced by the same text as national Park (separate decree). Wilderness Reserves may fall under the category IUCN AI.
Category AC3 easements concern easements relating to nature reserves and protection perimeters around nature reserves. Parts of the territory of one or more municipalities may be classified as a nature reserve where the conservation of fauna, flora, soil, water, mineral and fossil deposits and, in general, of the natural environment is of particular importance or should be excluded from any artificial intervention likely to degrade them. There are three types of nature reserves: — national nature reserves; — regional nature reserves; — the nature reserves of the local authority of Corsica. Protection areas can be established around nature reserves In particular, the following may be regulated or prohibited: hunting, fishing, agricultural, forestry, pastoral, industrial, commercial, sporting and tourist activities, carrying out public or private works, water use, movement or parking of persons, vehicles and animals.
