Water Framework Directive (WFD) Canal Waterbodies are the management and reporting units for the WFD. This is a polyline shapefile dataset which is formed from a Waterways Ireland Canal Polygon dataset and river network dataset. These canal waterbodies are also included in the overall River Waterbodies (RWB) WFD dataset. Each waterbody has a unique identifier (EU_CD) so the dataset can be linked directly to other WFD data sources such as physical characteristics, risk, classification and other objectives.

Provenance information The Waterways Ireland Canal polygons and the river network routes datasets were used to create the canal waterbodies polyline layer. The waterbodies were split at catchment boundaries. This dataset is part of the overall river waterbodies dataset.
