The water data centre provides the European entry point for water related data as part of the Water Information System for Europe (WISE). It contains the input (reporting mechanisms) and output (visualisation of results) for compliance information under several water directives (WFD, Bathing water, UWWT directive, etc) as well as voluntary information as reported e.g. under the EEA regulation through the Eionet. The information compiled and maintained here is used in indicators, assessments and policy developments that are further accessible through the thematic links in WISE.
