EMFF 8.3.1 Monitoring Sites
This API provides a WMS service exposing the locations of monitoring sites established under the EMFF 8.3.1 Project in Malta. It is published by the Planning Authority Malta and offers national-scope geospatial data, accessible without authentication. The dataset can be used to identify and map monitoring stations associated with this specific project, supporting spatial analysis and integration into GIS applications through standard Web Map Service requests.This dataset includes the locations of the monitoring sites of the EMFF 8.3.1 Project.
