Domain consistency

Evaluation method description: The data of this dataset do not aim to achieve compliance with INSPIRE regulations. For this reason, its conformity is not evaluated and it is declared not conformant compliant by default.

Evaluation method description: The compliance of the metadata is evaluated using the "INSPIRE Reference Validator" web tool. The metadata is considered correct when the only errors reported are related with the main language of the metadata file. These errors are due to the fact that Catalan is not included in the list of official languages of the European Union.

Statement: External Geodynamics and Hydrogeology Unit: Based on the large geomorphological units and on the large lithological units (determined by the same authors in the maps of the same name) they establish which combinations between them define the different levels of erosion potential. The categories do not define the level of erodibility, but of potential erodibility, since it only takes into account geological factors, but not meteorological or vegetation cover factors. OTPAT: Intersection between the map of large geomorphological units and the map of large lithological units and categorization of the type of gravity risk based on the instructions received from the External Geodynamics and Hydrogeology Unit.
