This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 2000s to 2009, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images ranges from 25 to 100 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available. High-resolution data can be ordered via https://shop.ngi.be/fr/photos-aeriennes/

Geodetic markers of which the 3D coordinates are precisely known in common Belgian reference systems.

Buildings is the INSPIRE 2D vector data set of the "Constructions" layer originated from the Top10vector product of the National Geographic Institute in Belgium . It includes the "Building" features and the "OtherConstruction" features in accordance with the INSPIRE specifications.

AdminMap is the digital version of the administrative map. Two versions exist: the most complete one on the scale of 1:300 000 and a simplified version on the scale of 1:500 000. These maps show the different administrative units on the Belgian territory, from the federal State to the center of the districts for the 1:500 000. The map also shows the map grid of the National Geographic Institute. An index allows localizing the different units. The index also contains information on the linguistic statutes and on the postal codes.

This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 2010s to 2019, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images ranges from 25 to 100 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available.

This dataset contains a matrix of distances between all Belgian municipality centres as defined in the AdminVector product. The distance is in km and is rounded to an integer.

Riparian zones represent transitional areas occurring between land and freshwater ecosystems, characterised by distinctive hydrology, soil and biotic conditions and strongly influenced by the stream water. They provide a wide range of riparian functions (e.g. chemical filtration, flood control, bank stabilization, aquatic life and riparian wildlife support, etc.) and ecosystem services. The Riparian Zones products will support the objectives of several European legal acts and policy initiatives, such as the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020, the Habitats and Birds Directives and the Water Framework Directive. Two complementary product groups provide detailed information on the state and characteristics of riparian zones across Belgium: 1. Land Cover / Land Use (LCLU) 2. Green Linear Elements (GLE)

This dataset contains the orthophotos of the floodable areas along the Meuse, the Vesdre and the Demer. These orthophotos are digital aerial photographs, taken by Hansa Luftbild following the floods of July 2021, in which the systematic distortions due to the central projection, relief and the not always perfectly vertical axis of shooting have been corrected. The orthophoto thereby obtained is metrically more accurate than an ordinary aerial photograph and is highly valuable as basic information. The resolution of the data is 6.5 cm (4 cm above the Hoëgne).

The product is made of 6 "high resolution layers" covering all the Belgian territory as part of a European-wide coverage. The 6 layers concern 6 distinct themes: Imperviousness, Tree cover density, Forest type, Permanent grasslands, Wetlands and Permanent waterbodies. The 6 layers were produced by an automatic classification based on satellite images and collateral data and achieved by private companies (EEA service providers), and they were verified and enhanced by Belgium. At the Belgian level, verification and enhancements were made by AGIV for the northern part and SPW for the southern part. The NGI coordinated the project.

Network of marks whose planimetric coordinates are known with precision according to the reference systems which are used in Belgium.
