Malta European geostatistical 1km grid

This dataset series contains geographical grids of 1km grid cell size for Malta.The main attributes are a Grid ID coding the East and North coordinate of the lower left corner of each grid cell plus the hierarchy level plus the quad-tree level. And the INSPIREID of the lower grid cell corner. The grid has been created following the requirements of COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services and the INSPIRE Specification on Geographical Grid Systems - Guidelines. The grid can be used to represent all kinds of statistical and scientific values. The main application is the representation of demographic data (population). This 1km grid was provided by the Eurostat European Commission

Statement
The grid was created first by generating a European grid with the Bounding Box of EU27 + Norway and Iceland. The tool used is an ArcGIS extension that can be obtained from Eurostat at ESTAT-GISCO@ec.europa.eu. Then the sea areas were removed from the rectangular grid extent to remove inhabited grid cells. Finally the Pan European grid was cut into country grids using the country boundaries at scale 1.100000 from the GISCO database reference year 2010. The country boundaries first were project to LAEA.
