Pan-European map of morphological and lithological coastal type at zoomable scale. The map is collated and harmonised from geological maps provided by partners of EMODnet Geology. Where no such data were available, information from the EUROSION project is provided. The main attributes denote several types of rocky coast, beach, inshore area and artificial coast. The current version was finalised in May 2021.
Datasets are collected and digitized using GIS software. The resulting line representation was aggregated into point features at respective zoom levels using a Feature Manipulation Workbench (FME) to create and populate the points in terms of underlying category.
