Build-up areas cover the land classified as urban, industrial and abandoned urban and industrial. Land take means the total land taken by built-up areas, in other words the amount of change in built-up areas, within a specific period. In this indicator, first annual average of total land take is taken, and then it is divided by the last years’ population in order to find the annual land take per inhabitant described in square meters.
