ELF Elevation (EL) Iceland is one of 12 themes in the European Location Project (ELF). The purpose of ELF is to create harmonised cross-border, cross-theme and cross-resolution pan-European reference data from national contributions. The goal is to provide INSPIRE-compliant data for Europe. A description of the ELF (European Location Project) is here: http://www.elfproject.eu/content/overview Encoding: INSPIRE version 4

Línurnar sýna friðunarsvæði, þar sem eldi laxfiska (fam. salmonidae) í sjókvíum er óheimilt skv. auglýsingu nr. 460/2004.

Í markalaginu eru ýmis mörk lands og eru þetta allt flákalög og þau sýna eftirfarandi: skiptingu landsins eftir sveitarfélögum, skiptingu landsins eftir umdæmi sýslumanna, lögregluumdæmi og skiptingu landsins í dómstóla í héraði.

Svæða-, staðar- og farvegaskipting fyrir ofanflóð í samræmi við ofanflóðaskráningarkerfi Veðurstofu Íslands. Um er að ræða stigskiptingu (hierarchy) þar sem landinu er skipt niður í staði, hverjum stað svo niður í svæði og innan svæða eru svo afmarkaðir algengir farvegir ofanflóða.
