  • CartoWeb.be is a webservice (WMTS/WMS) offering cartographic representations at 11 scale levels (1:2,500 – 1:4,000,000) based on the NGI’s most recent vector reference data and developed for on screen display. Three layers are available for the territory of Belgium: (1) a TOPO layer available on all scales, (2) a TOPO-GREY layer, which is a greyscale version of the TOPO layer, and (3) an OVERLAY layer, available at the four largest scale levels (1:2,500 - 1:25,000), designed to be superimposed on other data. In addition, two other layers are available to represent Belgium in its European context at smaller scale levels (1:100,000 - 1:4,000,000): CROSSBORDER and CROSSBORDER-GREY.

  • This web service allows viewing the dataset BeStAddress.

  • This service allows consultation of the spatial metadata of the complete collection of aerial photos of the National Geographic Institute (NGI), from 1946 to today. The data is accessible via a Web Feature Service (WFS). The collection comprises more than 100,000 aerial photos. The images are predominantly panchromatic (black and white). From the late 1970s onwards, colour images were also taken, and from the end of 2004 onwards all images were taken in colour. The analogue aerial photos in the collection were scanned in high resolution. More recent aerial photos were captured directly in digital format. This specific service includes three layers: the centroids (centre points) of the individual aerial photos, the footprints (the outlines of the area on the ground covered by each photo), and the flight paths of the aircraft used during image acquisition. For each aerial photo, all known metadata is included in the attribute table, such as the acquisition date, the flight and the strip, the dimensions, the scale, the ground resolution, the radiometry (black and white or colour), the coordinates of the centre point, and the camera, lens and film used. This data makes it possible to find out which aerial photos are available for a given location and period, and what the characteristics of each photo are. The aerial photos can be ordered in high resolution via https://shop.ngi.be/nl/luchtfotos/.

  • 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 1989, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). During this period, only analogue aerial photographs are available. The analogue images were scanned at high resolution and orthorectified. The resulting orthophotos were assembled into mosaics and georeferenced in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. All orthophotos are panchromatic (black and white). The ground resolution (GSD) is 10 cm. The spatial coverage of this service is limited to the areas for which aerial photographs were available during the mentioned period. The service has been cached using the WebMercator TileMatrixSet, with a maximum scale denominator of 4,265.459167699568 metres (scale level 17).

  • The Solar Ultraviolet - Visible Irradiance Monitoring network (SUVIM) is formed of observation stations operated by the Royal Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy (IASB-BIRA). At each station, UV solar radiation is measured by several instruments. The network produces UV indices, solar irradiances and ancillary measurements such as meteorological conditions at the stations in quasi-real time. The SUVIM Station Network dataset includes information on the stations. It does not include the measured data, which form the SUVIM Observations dataset.

  • This service allows the visualization of the national orthophoto mosaics covering the entire territory of Belgium. 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 orthophotos from 2016 up to and including 2023, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the Belgian administrative Regions. A separate layer is published for each available year, with 2023 being the most recent orthophoto coverage in this service. The national orthophoto coverage is renewed annually. The orthophoto datasets of the Regions are integrated by the National Geographic Institute (NGI) into a single national coverage. Where possible, radiometric corrections are applied to ensure smooth transitions between the data of the Regions. The resulting orthophoto mosaics are georeferenced in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. All orthophotos are in colour (RGB). For the 2016–2021 campaigns, the ground resolution (GSD) is 25 cm throughout Belgium. From the 2022 campaign onwards, the GSD is 25 cm in Wallonia and 15 cm in Flanders and the Brussels-Capital Region. The spatial coverage of this service is the entire Belgian territory. For downloading the most recent orthophoto mosaics, reference is made to the associated dataset "Orthofoto INSPIRE".

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • View Service (WMS) for Alaro over Belgium. All the parameters of the last run of Alaro can be visualized, most of them associated with a custom style.

  • INSPIRE compliant view service for geographic information of the Marine Spatial Plan made available by the Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences (RBINS).
