This dataset contains a set of Points Of Interest (POI) indicating the location of places of interest in Belgium, collected by NGI. The dataset consists of 97 POI types grouped into 6 classes (natural elements, cult elements, patrimonial elements, elements of general interest, infrastructures, economy). POI types that have a link with the NGI topographic reference data are systematically monitored to ensure consistency between these data. But for other POI types, there is no guarantee of completeness and correctness. These are updated ad hoc when an error or incompleteness is noticed.

‘Top10Vector – High-voltage network’ is the vector dataset for the Belgian high-tension grid. The dataset consists of 2 feature types: high-voltage line segments [HT_hightensionlinesegment] and high-voltage pylons [HT_powerpylon]. The dataset can be downloaded via the links in 'Access' at the bottom of this page.

‘Top10Vector – Railway network’ is the dataset of the railway network in Belgium. This dataset includes 3 feature types, namely the railway track segments [RA_railwaytracksegment], railway stops [RA_railwaystop] and railway kilometer markers [RA_railwaykilometremarker]. The dataset can be downloaded via the links in 'Access' at the bottom of this page.

The dataset of the electoral cantons represents the geographical unit used for the organization of the elections. The electoral cantons were digitised based on the definitions in the Annex of the Electoral Code, which is managed by the FPS Home Affairs. The dataset consists of a single feature type, namely the boundaries of the electoral cantons [electoralcanton]. This dataset can be downloaded via the links in 'Access' at the bottom of this page.

The Royal Observatory of Belgium maintains several continuously observing GNSS tracking stations in Belgium. The stations are also belonging to EUREF Permanent Network (EPN) used to maintain the ETRS89 and the observation data are available to the public through https://doi.org/10.24414/FST8-P256.

Cadastral parcels - monthly situation corresponds to the dataset of the monthly situation of the cadastral parcels layer from the Land Register plan. The dataset is composed of two classes. The first class contains the geometries of the cadastral parcels; the second is a class without geometry and corresponds to a code table of the different fiscal situations used in the first class. The dataset can be freely downloaded as a zipped shapefiles.

Points Of Interest - Infrastructures interest contains point elements indicating the location of a infrastructure, such as a container depot, incinerator, brunnel (bridges and tunnels), rail traffic, subway access, subway and tram stops, heli- and airport, control tower, light mast, lighthouse, water tower, flashing-lamp, breakwater, harbour area, marina, ship lift, dock, embankment, sluice, stilt structure and water point in Belgium.

The files contain the population characteristics (total, gender and/or age groups) by statistical sector in Belgium on January 1st, according to the Belgian definition of the population. The Belgian definition does not take into account the 12-months criterion and excludes asylum seekers.

Points Of Interest - Natural elements contains point elements relating to nature, namely remarkable trees and underground cavities in Belgium.

This dataset corresponds to the dataset of address points on the Belgian territory. The result is obtained by merging the three regions on the basis of XML files which has been supplied to BOSA for the cooperation agreement BeStAddress. The dataset is freely downloadable.
