This zip file contains the polygon shape files for NUTS boundaries from GISCO/ESTAT STATUS 2016. The vector boundaries have been rasterized by JRC to cut the Copernicus CLC and HRL-Forest Pan-European datasets into country datasets and at NUTS 1 level at the exact pixel size needed (CLC: 100 m pixels, HRL: 20 m pixels).

The forest area and patch statistics calculated based on the Copernicus CLC and HRL-Forest Pan-European datasets are based on the rasterized version of these boundaries.

These vector data shape files should be used to show official boundaries at the various NUTS levels in the map viewer on the FISE page.
