Urban Morphological Zones database Urban Morphological Zones database Summary Geometries and data Description Geometries of Urban Morphological Zones (UMZ) for cities over 10 000 inhabitants (around 4300 statistical units in Europe). This dataset covers 29 countries (UE 27 + Lichtenstein and Croatia). These UMZ are described by a name and several basic indicators (Population, population by age, education by type, and dwelling structure).One dictionary to link UMZ and LAU2 (GISCO: Comm_Cens_2001) is available. These files have been revised the 2013-04-19. Provider UMR Géographie-cités (ESPON DATABASE project) Creation Date 2011-10-15 Data File Doc File Morphological Urban Areas database Morphological Urban Areas database Summary Geometries and data Description Geometries of the Morphological Urban Areas (MUA) for cities over 20 000 inhabitants (1988 statistical units in Europe). This dataset covers 29 countries (UE 27 + Norway and Switzerland). These MUA are described by a name and one basic indicator (population). Provider IGEAT (ESPON DATABASE project) Creation Date 2011-12-07 Data File Functional Urban Areas database Functional Urban Areas database Summary Geometries and data Description Geometries of the Functional Urban Areas (FUA) for cities over 20 000 inhabitants (1530 statistical units in Europe). This dataset covers 29 countries (UE 27 + Norway and Switzerland). 15 basic indicators in different thematic fields (demography, economy, social) are associated with these geometries. These files have been revised in 2012.

This dataset covers 30 countries (UE 27 + Norway, Switzerland and Iceland). 15 basic indicators in different thematic fields (demography, economy, social) are associated with these geometries. The same indicators are produced for the national level.
