Methodology for obtaining data An appointed national Reportnet user (NFP, NRC for biodiversity) can allocate codes for new sites on site code distribution web page (http://dd.eionet.europa.eu/services/siteCodes/view).

The digital boundaries for sites larger than 1 hectare should also be delivered. The site code is the unique key for the tabular and the polygons in the spatial data set.
