Dataset: Imperviousness Density 2015 (raster 20 m), Europe, 3-yearly, Marc. 2018

Contact point
European Environment Agency (copernicus@eea.europa.eu)

The high resolution imperviousness products capture the percentage and change of soil sealing. Built-up areas are characterized by the substitution of the original (semi-) natural land cover or water surface with an artificial, often impervious cover. These artificial surfaces are usually maintained over long periods of time. A series of high resolution imperviousness datasets (for the 2006, 2009, ... (read more)
