Abstract
The dataset has been produced by University of Forestry as a product of the project: Improving the conservation effectiveness of wetlands, WetMainAreas, funded under Transnational Cooperation Programme Balkan-Mediterranean 2014-2020 in accordance with Subsidy Contract BMP1/2.1/2342/2017. Wetland detection was based on existing official wetland archives, provided by MOEW for the project purposes, publicly available spatial data sources and results of water surface dynamics mapping via Sentinel2 sattelite imagery (spatial resolution 10 meters) of the year 2017, produced in collaboration with the National Observatory of Athens. The delineation of final wetland polygons was performed by computer-based photo interpretation using Google's (hybrid) cartographic background. The polygons represent the boundaries of wetland ecosystems covering all wetland types, defined according to the Ramsar Convention.
