The degree of urbanisation classifies local administrative units (LAU in Europe into three categories: thinly (rural), intermediate (towns and suburbs or small urban) and densely populated (cities or large urban) areas. The classification is based on a population distribution grid with raster cells of 1 sqkm size. Data are available for EU countries, Norway, Switzerland, Serbia and Iceland. The data is available at 1:100 000 resolution for internal commission users and a generalised 1:1 000 000 resolution is available to the public via the GISCO Dedicated Section on the Eurostat website. Classification based on method described in manual on Territitorial typologies in consulation with Member states.

Densely and Intermediate populated areas are generated from the population grid to create High Density and Urban clusters. Source information: The boundaries of the degree of urbanisation areas are derived from the LAU2 2018 boundaries from the European Commission - Eurostat/GISCO, based on data from EuroGeographics and the Eurostat 2011 Population grid.
