Baltic Sea Drainage Basin, GIS data and statistics
Harmonized hydrological base map of the entire Baltic Sea Drainage Basin, including 634 sub-drainage basins. Attribute data, added to all the sub-drainage basins in the database enable a user to aggregate sub-drainage drainage basins and characterization data to different management-relevant hydrological scales, up to the BSDB itself. Attribute data also contains data on total population, population densities, slope and land cover distribution.
