From the EEA data three sites were corrected with new locations due to their incorrect original locations (possible errors during recording). These sites are: Bingsmarken, SE (orig. coordinates N 55,39 E 15,799), Mossbylund, SE (orig. coordinates N 55,412 E 17,06) and Mossbystrand (orig. coordinates N 55,44 E 17,168)
The dataset was approved by all HELCOM Contracting Parties in the HOLAS II Human activities data review process during first quarter of 2017. |
