This is a shortcut to the WMS service of the ecological nature map provided by the Environmental Spatial Information Service. The ecological nature map is a map created by classifying the natural environment according to ecological value, naturalness, and scenic value, such as mountains, rivers, inland wetlands, lakes, farmlands, and cities. The ecological nature map is a concept that developed from the green space natural map of the past, and is a map that classifies the natural environment according to ecological value, naturalness, and scenic value, etc., based on the National Natural Environment Survey and other ecological survey information, and is used as an evaluation standard for natural environment conservation and development. The results of the National Natural Environment Survey and various detailed ecosystem surveys are converted into a GIS-DB (current vegetation map, topographic status map, flora and fauna distribution map), and a 1/25,000 scale ecological nature map (800 map sheets nationwide) is created and made available to the public, dividing the entire country into 1-3 grades and separate management areas according to ecological value.

This web map shows natural features point and polygon layers from OSM (OpenStreetMap) in India.OSM is a collaborative, open project to create a freely available and editable map of the world. Geographic information about streets, rivers, borders, points of interest and areas are collected worldwide and stored in a freely accessible database. Everyone can participate and contribute to OSM. The geographic information available on OSM relies entirely on volunteers or contributors.The attributes are given below:BeachCave EntranceCliffGlacierPeakSpringTreeVolcanoThese map layers are offered by Esri India Content. The content team updates the map layers quarterly. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know via content@esri.in.

In 1988, following the establishment of several regional parks, the vegetation mapping programme was launched. The vegetation map is a key tool both for the preparation of the Parks’ spatial plans and for their management. In order to compile the vegetation map, the plant sociological methodology, already adopted by the Regional Code, has been followed, which is widely tested and acquired in the field of vegetation mapping at European level. The method used included photointerpretation, cartographic return, campaign survey, data processing and final paper compilation; All operations carried out in accordance with the relevant regional legislation. All the cards were then acquired in digital format and are currently available both in E00 format for ARC INFO and as a shapefile. In addition, for each vegetation map the natural map derived from it is available.

Twelve maps of continental Europe indicating the protected nature area status in 2019 according to Natura 2000 and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN status was extracted from crowdsourced data obtained from OpenStreetMap through geofabrik.de.

This dataset contains:

3 raster maps representing Natura 2000 protection status (A, B and C), named Natura2000_[status].tif

8 raster maps representing OSM-derived IUCN protection status (1a, 1b, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 'other'), named OSM_IUCN_[status].tif

1 aggregated map (adm_protected.area_natura2000.osm_p_30m_0..0cm_2019..2021_eumap_epsg3035_v0.1) where each of the 11 protection statuses, as well as pixels where multiple statuses apply, are assigned a unique value. This map can also be accessed interactively at maps.opendatascience.eu.

All files are provided as Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs and projected in the Coordinate Reference System ETRS89 / LAEA Europe (= EPSG code 3035). Styling files for the aggregated raster are provided in both SLD and QML format.

Vector georeferenced database containing the map of the naturalness of the vegetation. The map of naturalness was derived from the vegetation map by merging the homogeneous areas by degree of naturalness.

Data set display service: Habitat types and biotopes: Natura nature type map The map service contains data from the NNK (Naturanatur Type Map) system that contains habitat types according to the Art and Habitats Directive. The data is continuously supplemented and maintained by the county administrative boards. Data is available for protected areas and Natura 2000 sites and mapping is done according to established procedures. These datasets are included in INSPIRE Annex 3, theme “Life environments and habitats” (Habitats and biotopes).

This map shows benthic habitats surrounding the Bahamas. It is produced and owned by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and derived from PlanetScope Dove Classic imagery. This map is part of the The Nature Conservancy Caribbean Benthic Habitat dataset.

The Valle d’Aosta Soil Map, drawn up on a scale of 1:100000, is a fundamental tool for land management. It is a synthesis of the soil types present at regional level, helping to provide essential information for the management of the agro-forestry and environmental resources of the region.

Note: this map service is being replaced by a new set of feature layers, please use these instead:Historical Tsunami EventsTsunami ObservationsSignificant EarthquakesSignificant Volcanic EventsVolcano LocationsCurrent DARTs and Retrospective BPR DeploymentsHistorical MarigramsTsunami-Capable Tide StationsPlate BoundariesNatural hazards such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanoes affect both coastal and inland areas. Long-term data from these events can be used to establish the past record of natural hazard event occurrences, which is important for planning, response, and mitigation of future events. NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) plays a major role in post-event data collection. The data in this archive is gathered from scientific and scholarly sources, regional and worldwide catalogs, tide gauge reports, individual event reports, and unpublished works.

The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program"s Natural Areas are terrestrial and aquatic areas that are of special biodiversity significance. A Natural Area"s significance may be due to the presence of rare species, high-quality natural communities, important animal assemblages, or other ecological features, collectively known as “Elements” of biodiversity. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) identifies and inventories these areas, evaluates and assigns conservation priority ratings to the Natural Areas based on the biodiversity within them, and works with many partners to implement voluntary protection for them. The Natural Area boundaries are drawn by NCNHP staff, based on field surveys, and are ecological in nature.Many of the Natural Areas are on private land and are not open to the public. Written permission should be obtained from all appropriate landowners before visiting any of these sites.

These data were compiled for the use of training natural feature machine learning (GeoAI) detection and delineation. The natural feature classes include the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) feature types Basins, Bays, Bends, Craters, Gaps, Guts, Islands, Lakes, Ridges and Valleys, and are an areal representation of those GNIS point features. Features were produced using heads-up digitizing from 2018 to 2019 by Dr. Sam Arundel's team at the U.S. Geological Survey, Center of Excellence for Geospatial Information Science, Rolla, Missouri, USA, and Dr. Wenwen Li's team in the School of Geographical Sciences at Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona, USA.

The areas for the protection of nature include in particular the - areas worthy of nature conservation secured by the technical planning and - other habitats worthy of nature conservation (biotopes) which are to be protected accordingly. In addition, they contain sub-areas that are considered as search areas for specialist planning, in which specialist planning has to determine and develop the possibilities for supplementing the existing habitats worthy of nature protection and for establishing a biotope network system.

State Nature Preserves are dedicated areas that have been recognized for their natural significance and protected by law for scientific and educational purposes. Dedicated state nature preserves are established solely to protect and preserve rare species, the natural environment, or exceptional natural scenery or environmental education opportunities. Public hiking trails are available when ecologically appropriate, but they are closely regulated to protect the natural integrity of the preserves. The State Nature Preserves available in this layer are open to the public for outdoor recreation.
