Dataset description

European Monitoring of Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes (EMBAL) is a project was commissioned by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment (DG ENV). It is a LUCAS-compatible field survey that visits 500 × 500m plots chosen from a 2 × 2 km grid across all EU-27 during the peak phenological period. In each campaign it records land-cover, landscape elements, habitat types, plot-scale biodiversity and pollination resources. This EMBAL viewer provides access to EMBAL data and plots without georeferenced information or the field photographs collected by surveyors. If you are interested in using the EMBAL data with geolocation and/or photos taken in the survey, please fill in the Research proposal template provided below and send it to JRC-EMBAL-DATA@ec.europa.eu

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.

Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.

Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.

Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
