Definition	Flag to indicate whether the designation does or does not create sites (is measurable by area).
Methodology for obtaining data	A "Yes" in this field indicates that the CDDA should contain sites data for this designation, even if no sites are yet recorded in the Sites table. As explained in the description of the Designations table, some of the designation do not create sites in the classical sense, such as the protection of the complete distribution of a particular habitat or zoning systems in other sectors. In the case you indicate "No", you are asked to fill an estimate or exact figure of the area covered within the country by this designation in the "Total Area Reference" field. NOTE: from 2008, you are also asked to provide digital GIS information for the areas protected by this kind of designation.
