Data source for Hydraulic structures and Navigable stretches: Updated information based on UNDP/GEF Danube Pollution Reduction Programme, 1999, Map 12: Structural Analysis of Major Danube Basin Rivers
(Major hydraulic structures). River stretches less than 20 km length are not depicted, e.g. the lower Danube has several 'strongly regulated' river stretches, but the general character is 'free flowing'.
Data source for harbours and waterways: via donau (2004).
Product of ICPDR, Vienna
This product includes geographical data licensed from European National Mapping Agencies. EuroGlobalMap v1.0 (EuroGeographics) was used as the basic topographic layer for DE, AT, CZ, IT, SI and HR. The data for the other countries is based on
VMAP Level 0 data from NIMA. The outer border of the DRBD is based on national information from DE, AT, CH, CZ, SK, SI, HR, BA, CS, BG, RO, UA and MD. For PL, AL, MK and IT the data of the European Commission (Joint Research Centre) was used.
