View Service (WMS) for Synoptic observations

The national wastewater-based epidemiological surveillance monitors public health parameters in several wastewater treatment plants across Belgium. This webservice contains the results per treatment plant since the beginning of the surveillance in September 2020. The results consist of concentrations over time as well as other data needed for the interpretations such as the flow rates of the treatment plants and the population covered.

This service allows the visualization of historical orthophoto mosaics based on available aerial photographs covering parts of the Belgian territory. The data is accessible via a Web Map Service (WMS). Orthophotos are aerial photographs that have been geometrically corrected (orthorectified) to eliminate distortions caused by terrain relief, lens distortion, and camera tilt. Unlike raw aerial imagery, orthophotos have a uniform scale and accurate geometry, making them suitable for cartography, measurements, and visual analysis. This specific service includes historical orthophotos from 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI) and the Regions. During this period, both analogue and digital aerial photographs are available. The analogue images were scanned at high resolution and, like the digital ones, orthorectified. The resulting orthophotos were assembled into mosaics and georeferenced in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. All orthophotos are in colour (RGB). The ground resolution (GSD) varies between 10 cm and 50 cm, depending on the sensor used and the surveyed area. The spatial coverage of this service is limited to the zones for which aerial photographs were available during the mentioned period.

INSPIRE compliant view service for geographic information of marine datasets made available by the Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences (RBINS) in the IDOD (Integrated and Dynamical Oceanographic Database) database.

Climate indicators for a present (1975) and future (2085) target year under a mean and high impact scenario (view and download service with raster files). The climate indicators for Belgium were obtained by a statistical downscaling based on the high-resolution Belgian climate model projections, as well as on a large set of both Global Climate Model runs (CMIP5) and Regional Climate Model runs for Europe (EURO-CORDEX).

INSPIRE compliant view service for geographic information of the datasets of the Marine Strategic Framework Directive made available by the Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences (RBINS).

This web service allows viewing CORINE High Resolution Layers Belgium covering the Belgian territory within the framework of a Pan-European coverage. This service is compliant with the INSPIRE specifications.

View Service (WMS) for Automatic weather station (AWS) observations

INSPIRE compliant view service for geographic information of the core sample collection made available by the Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences (RBINS).

This web service allows visualization of the 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, religious elements, patrimonial elements, elements of general interest, infrastructures, economy).
