This dataset relates to Article 12 of the EU Birds Directive, which requires Member States to report on progress in implementing the Directive. The European Commission, in agreement with Member States, revised the reporting procedure to focus on data describing the status and distribution of wild bird populations.

The data supports periodic reporting obligations and monitoring of bird population status, and is made available as a web feature service for use in geographic information systems and environmental assessments.
