Groundwater Monitoring Network
This API provides the location of monitoring stations forming Malta's Groundwater Monitoring Network, a component of the Operational Groundwater Monitoring Network established under the Water Framework Directive. It is published by the Planning Authority Malta and delivered as a WMS (Web Map Service) layer, allowing spatial visualisation of monitoring points across the country. The dataset supports assessment and tracking of groundwater quantity and quality status as part of Malta's national water resource management and EU reporting obligations.Location of Groundwater Monitoring Network forming part of the Operational Groundwater Monitoring Network as part of the Water Framework Directive
