Dataset Direct Download Service (WFS): Reference stations at nodes of the Rhin-Meuse SDAGE 2009-2015

The nodal points for water management defined in general downstream of the hydrographic reference units for the Water Management and Management Schemes* (SAGE*) and/or within such units, the contours of which can be determined by the Water Management and Management Master Schemes (SDAGE*). At these points can be defined according to the general objectives chosen for the unit, the flow benchmarks* and quality. Their location is based on criteria of hydrographic, ecosystem, hydrogeological and socio-economic coherence. (Glossaire sur l’eau Eau-France: Source: according to Ministry of Environment and Onema). The stations correspond to the hydrometric stations (see the corresponding metadata sheet). Maps of the reference stations at the nodal points of the Rhin-Meuse SDAGE are contained in the map annexes of the Rhin-Meuse SDAGE.
