Dreifing hvítabjarna sem sést hafa á Íslandi í mismunandi mælihvarði. Þekja ni_G500v_hvitabjorn, punktalag. [Distribution of polar bear sightings in Iceland in different scales. Point layer ni_G500v_hvitabjorn.] Ekki er hægt að tala um hvítabirni sem íslenska tegund en þó hafa þeir tekið hér land af og til og teljast því til flökkudýra. Upplýsingar eru til um rúmlega 560 hvítabirni sem skráðir hafa verið hérlendis frá upphafi landnáms. Síðast varð vart við hvítabjörn við Höfðaströnd í Jökulfjörðum 2024. Viss ónákvæmni er þarna um að ræða því vafalaust hafa einhver dýr gengið hér á land án þess að menn hafi haft þar vitneskju um eða skráð sérstaklega. [Polar bears are not native to Iceland, although they do occasionally turn up in Iceland and are thus classified as vagrants. Information exists on just over 560 polar bears recorded as having arrived in Iceland from the beginning of human settlement on the island to the present day. This is a somewhat imprecise figure, since polar bears have undoubtedly come ashore without their presence going noticed, while bear sightings and encounters were not always documented in the past. The last polar bear observation was at Höfðaströnd, Jökulfjörður, Westfjords, in 2024. Table entries are in Icelandic.] Nákvæmni tíma [Accuracy of time]: varies depending on the source. If only the year of the sighting is known, you find this year under fitjueigindi 'ártal 1' (artal1). In case there are more details known, there are as well entries for fitjueigindir 'dags hvítabjarnakomur' (dagsHvitabjarnakomur) or 'ártið' (artid). If the year is not quite definit, there is an entry in fitjueigindi 'um' (um). Entries in both fitjueigindir 'ártal 1' and 'ártal 2' (artal1, artal2) define a timespan for the sighting. Nákvæmni staðarins [Accuracy of location]: varies depending on the source. All sightings for Íceland are grouped in the center of Iceland and the value for fitjueiginde 'nákvæmni XY' (nakvaemniXY) is '9000'. Sightings for Norðurland are grouped on Tröllaskagi, sightings for Norðvestur are placed in the center of the Vestfjords, sightings on Melrakki are grouped just off the north coast (nakvaemniXY = 3000 or 2000). If only the area is know, the data is placed in the center of the corresponding 10-km-reit (nakvaemniXY = 1000). If the location is known in detail, t.d. bæ, the entry for 'nakvaemniXY' is '100'. Sometimes the sources do not state the location of the sighting but the farm where the animal was processed [unnin]. And one has to keep in mind that a 'dot' in the data set can also represent an animal that has been in Iceland for a longer period of time and has traveled a longer distance. If there are several sightings for the same place or area, the entries are scatterd using a 1-km-reit system. Entries on age, sex, and size or weight are often missing. Fitjueigindi 'RM númer' (RMnumer) corresponds with the Natural History Collection of Náttúrufræðistofnun.

Vatnsföll eru gjarnan flokkuð í þrjá flokka, dragár, lindár og jökulár eftir rennslisháttum. Mörg eru vatnsföllin þó af blönduðum uppruna vegna margbreytileika vatnasviða þeirra. Gagnasettið sýnir greiningu vatnasvæða í vatnafarsflokka, eftir því hvernig svæðið bregst við úrkomu og miðlar henni, og rennslisháttum vatnsfalla sem eiga uppruna sinn á viðkomandi svæði.

Vefþjónustan inniheldur upplýsingar um hættusvæði, jafnáhættulínur og mörk hættumetins svæðis fyrir nokkra þéttbýliskjarna. Nánari upplýsingar fást á vef VÍ (https://www.vedur.is/ofanflod/haettumat). Útgefið hættumatskort gildir ef misræmi er á milli þess og vefþjónustunnar.

Ræktunarsvæði er afmarkað svæði sjávar nægjanlega stórt til að rúma þann ræktunarbúnað sem notaður er á viðkomandi svæði. Yfirleitt er um að ræða línur sem strekktar eru á milli flot bauja eða sérstaka ræktunarfleka með lóðréttar ræktunarlínur fáeina metra niður undir yfirborð sjávar . Svæðið er merkt með löglegum sjómerkjum þannig að sjófarendur eiga að geta varast þau, enda einnig merkt inn sjókort Landhelgisgæslunnar. Einungis er ræktuð Bláskel (Kræklingur).

Corine Land Cover (CLC) 2018 and CLC change 2012-2018 are two of the datasets produced within the frame of the Initial Operations of the Copernicus programme (the European Earth monitoring programme previously known as GMES) on land monitoring.Corine Land Cover (CLC) provides consistent information on land cover and land cover changes across Europe. This inventory was initiated in 1985 (reference year 1990) and established a time series of land cover information with updates in 2000, 2006. 2012 and now 2018. CLC products are based on photointerpretation of satellite images by national teams of participating countries - the EEA member and cooperating countries – following a standard methodology and nomenclature with the following base parameters: 44 classes in the hierarchical three level Corine nomenclature; minimum mapping unit (MMU) for status layers is 25 hectares; minimum width of linear elements is 100 metres; minimum mapping unit (MMU) for Land Cover Changes (LCC) for the change layers is 5 hectares. The resulting national land cover inventories are further integrated into a seamless land cover map of Europe. Land cover and land use (LCLU) information is important not only for land change research, but also more broadly for the monitoring of environmental change, policy support, the creation of environmental indicators and reporting. CLC datasets provide important datasets supporting the implementation of key priority areas of the Environment Action Programmes of the European Union as protecting ecosystems, halting the loss of biological diversity, tracking the impacts of climate change, assessing development in agriculture and implementing the EU Water Framework Directive, among others.

EN: Lake and coastal waterbodies in Iceland. "Lake" means a body of standing inland surface water. "Coastal water" means surface water on the landward side of a line, every point of which is at a distance of one nautical mile on the seaward side from the nearest point of the baseline from which the breadth of territorial waters is measured, extending where appropriate up to the outer limit of transitional waters.
