This API provides a WFS geospatial dataset of Tree Protected Areas (TPA) in Malta, published via the Planning Authority in connection with the Trees and Woodland Protection Regulations (S.L. 549.123). The regulations aim to protect trees and woodlands across the Maltese Islands, with particular focus on native species and plant communities. Under this framework, the Environment and Resources Authority (ERA) has designated 60 TPAs to safeguard trees for future generations. The dataset delineates the boundaries of these protected areas, supporting spatial analysis, planning, and environmental management activities related to tree and woodland conservation at the national level.The Trees and Woodland Protection Regulations (S.L. 549.123), aims at protecting the trees and woodlands of the Maltese Islands, particularly native species and communities. For this reason ERA has so far designated a total of 60 TPA in order to protect trees for future generations. Trees within a…
