Soil sealing
<p>This indicator shows the area of soil per inhabitant that is sealed with impervious materials due to development and construction (such as buildings, constructions and laying of completely or partially impermeable artificial material such as asphalt or glass). The indicator builds on data from the Imperviousness High Resolution Layer (a product of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service). The indicator is presented in the following units: Total surface total sealed per inhabitant (in m2 per inhabitant), total surface sealed (in km2) and in percentage of soil sealed.</p>
