Table 3.1: The land analytical and reporting units coded into the LEAC database Administrative units NUTS 0 (countries) NUTS 1 NUTS 2 NUTS 3 Cities Geographic regions Regional sea basins (according to international conventions on sea) Coastal zones (High and low coast, inland) Mountain areas (Massifs) Urban morphological zones Biogeographic regions (according to Natura 2000) Land cover units (Corine land cover) Land cover intensity in neighbourhoods (CORILIS modifiable layers) Dominant land cover and landscape type areas Elevation (lowland, upland, mountain) Others???

Table 3.2: Definition of altitude classes used in LEAC Lowland: all land below 200 m; lowland can be subdivided between coastal zone (10 km strip from the coastline) and low inland. Upland: all land above 200 m and lower than 500 m, as well as up to m when the average slopes in the 1 km² grid cells is < 2 % (i.e. a plateaux surface). Mountain: all land above higher than m as well as land between 500 m and m, when the average slope in a 3 km x 3 km grid cells is > 2 %.
