Managed by the Greifswald Mire Centre, offers data on peatland size and location worldwide. The Global Peatland Database (GPD) is a project of the International Mire Conservation Group (IMCG) located and maintained at the Greifswald Mire Centre.
Location and extent of peatlands worldwide by the Global Peatlands Initiative.
Data on wetlands of international importance, including peatlands, across Europe. Includes ecological character, threats, and management information.

The Habitats Directive requires all Member States to establish a strict protection regime for species listed in Annex IV, both inside and outside Natura 2000 sites.
Con motivo del Día Internacional de los Humedales y 50 aniversario del Convenio Ramsar, se ha publicado el informe "Situación actual y perspectivas de conservación y restauración de los humedales españoles hasta 2030".
El Convenio de Ramsar viene alentando desde hace años a los Estados miembros para que establezcan Comités Nacionales de Humedales, que proporcionen un marco nacional y los mecanismos necesarios para aplicar y difundir la filosofía de protección y uso racional de los humedales, así como la elaboración de políticas nacionales de humedales. España fue uno de los primeros países en cumplir esta directriz Ramsar, datando la creación de nuestro Comité de Humedales de 1994.

PeatSense is a collaborative platform aimed at contributing to the monitoring, restoration and conservations at peatlands at scale. It is developed by the AI2Peat project, a project funded by Science Foundation Ireland under its Future Digital Challenge call. The AI2Peat consortium is composed of CeADAR - Ireland's centre for applied AI -, iCRAG - the SFI centre for applied geosciences - and NPWS - Ireland's National Parks and Wildlife Services.
The European Wetland Map (EWM) improves the current state of knowledge on wetlands across Europe by locating, assessing and merging the latest geospatial data, e.g., on the distribution and types of floodplains and wetlands – coastal, mineral and peatlands in a bottom-up approach. It brings together existing data into a comprehensive, easily accessible resource to make wide spread European wetlands visible and enhance their analysis, understanding and management. The approach is described in the attached report. The EWM is made up of individual datasets for each of the countries included.
