Spatial model quick reference

Spatial model changes between version 6.0.6 (used in 2016) and version 7.0.6

Quality Control specification

The following specifications are the basis of the quality control tools

• Quality control specification for spatial data (GML)

UML Data specification

• UML & Schemas in Enterprise Architect project format (EAP)

See below the UML diagrams for each dataset:

• RiverBasinDistrict_2022.png
• SubUnit_2022.png
• SurfaceWaterBody_2022.png
• SurfaceWaterBodyLine_2022.png
• SurfaceWaterBodyCentreline_2022.png
• GroundWaterBody_2022.png
• GroundWaterBodyHorizon_2022.png
• MonitoringSite_2022.png
• ProtectedArea_2022.png
• ProtectedAreaLine_2022.png
• ProtectedAreaPoint_2022.png

GML schemas

These are the GML schemas to allow the reporting of the spatial data:

• GML_Common_2022.xsd
• WFDCommon_2022.xsd
• GML_RiverBasinDistrict_2022.xsd
• GML_SubUnit_2022.xsd
• GML_SurfaceWaterBody_2022.xsd
• GML_SurfaceWaterBodyLine_2022.xsd
• GML_SurfaceWaterBodyCentreline_2022.xsd
• GML_GroundWaterBody_2022.xsd
• GML_GroundWaterBodyHorizon_2022.xsd
• GML_MonitoringSite_2022.xsd
• GML_ProtectedArea_2022.xsd
• GML_ProtectedAreaPoint_2022.xsd
• GML_ProtectedAreaLine_2022.xsd

Shapefile templates to prepare the spatial data

Shapefiles can be used to prepare the spatial data. The shapefiles must be converted to GML format (a conversion tool is available in the CDR envelopes). GML is the only format accepted in the final reporting of the spatial data.
These are the shapefile templates for each dataset:

• RiverBasinDistrict.zip
• SubUnit.zip
• SurfaceWaterBody.zip
• SurfaceWaterBodyLine.zip
• SurfaceWaterBodyCentreline.zip
• GroundWaterBody.zip
• GroundWaterBodyHorizon.zip
• MonitoringSite.zip
• ProtectedArea.zip
• ProtectedAreaLine.zip
• ProtectedAreaPoint.zip


• WFD2022_Shapefiles.zip Model shapefiles in a zip file for download

• PRJ example files for download

The projection files refer to the following coordinate reference systems:

• EPSG3035: ETRS89 / ETRS-LAEA, see more info
• EPSG4258: ETRS89, see more info
• EPSG4326: WGS84, see more info
