HVD - Annex 2 Earth Observation and Environment - Nature Preservation and Biodiversity - Habitats Directive Article 17 (Period 2013 - 2018)

Report on progress and implementation (Article 17, Habitats Directive)

Article 17 requires Member States to report every six years about the progress made with the implementation of the Habitats Directive. As the main focus of the directive is on maintaining and/or restoring a favourable conservation status for habitat types & species of community interest, monitoring & reporting under the directive is focusing on that. Monitoring of conservation status is not restricted to Natura 2000 sites and data need to be collected both in and outside the Natura 2000 network to achieve a full appreciation of conservation status.

This reporting obligation is an Eionet core data flow.
Delivery process is managed by EEA.
