Abstract

This report about the Dutch coast was written in the context of the experimental phase of the programme CORINE of the Commission of the European Communities. The programme CORINE (COoRdination of INformation on the Environment) is a programme for the gathering, coordinating and ensuring of the environment and natural sources in the Community. The objective of the project ' coastal erosion', as part of the CORINE-programme, is to provide a cartography and a database of the risks of coastal erosion in the Community. This report has grown out of the objectives of the project and the activities and agreements of the working group involved. However, some parts of the contents may be interesting to a wider group. In the text you will often find the notation NUTS followed by a number. The NUTS (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics) is an interlocking system of territorial units at three levels. The used level III is the finest one.
