HELCOM 1x1km Baltic Sea grid |
Short description |
Data set represents the HELCOM 1x1 km Baltic Sea grid, that was originally created for the HOLAS II project (State of the Baltic Sea report 2018) and used in the Baltic Sea Impact Index and Shipping density maps produced for HELCOM Maritime Assessment. The grid is based on the European Environment agency (EEA) grid system, and its compatible with all other grid sizes. The grid covers the whole Baltic Sea water area: A grid cell is included in the data set if some part of the 1x1 km cell touches water according to the EEA coastline data set. Same method is applied to cut the grid to match the HELCOM marine area.
Attribute information:
HELCOM_subbasin_ID: HELCOM subbasin ID where the cell is located
HELCOM_subbasin_name: HELCOM subbasin name where the cell is located |
