The data set contains a seamless polygonal layer representing the land cover in Belgium for the year 2006 and the year 2012. The polygons are spread over 32 classes from the CORINE Land Cover legend which are present un Belgium. The minimum map unit is 25 ha. The conceptual scale is 1:100 000. The data set also contains a polygon layer showing changes of more than 5 ha in the land cover between 2006 and 2012.

The average household size of private households by administrative unit (region, province, district and municipality) for Wallonia.

Notifications of the cadastral income corresponds to the dataset describing the new cadastral incomes of property located in Belgium that has been notified to the taxpayer. This dataset is made up of seven classes. The first class includes, at national level, by fiscal status, by nature of cadastral income and by category of motivations, the number of cadastral incomes notified, the total amount of cadastral incomes notified, the median cadastral income notified, the 25th and 75th percentiles of cadastral incomes notified and the standard deviation of cadastral incomes notified. The second class includes this information at the level of the three regions. The following classes do the same at the level of provinces, arrondissements, municipalities, cadastral divisions and statistical sectors. The dataset can be freely downloaded as a zipped CSV.

The Royal Decree of 20 March 2026 establishing the marine spatial plan for the period 2026 to 2034 in the Belgian marine areas defines 3 aquaculture zones: Fisheries research zone (Art. 17§2), Zone accessible to aquaculture and passive fisheries (Art. 18), Zone accessible to aquaculture (Art. 18§1). It replaces the 2020 Marine Spatial Plan. Please refer to the Belgian official gazette ("Moniteur belgeBelgisch Staatsblad") for official reference information.

This datasets is a summary of the CTD profiles measured with the RV Belgica. It provides general meta-information such as the campaign code, the date of measurement and the geographical information. An important information is the profile quality flag that describes the validity of the data. A quality flag = 2 means the data is generally good although some outliers can still be present. A quality flag = 4 means the data should not be trusted. 1 meter binned data can be download on the SeaDataNet CDI portal (enter the cruise_id in the search bar) ONLY for the good quality profiles. Full acquisition frequency datasets are available on request to BMDC.

This dataset represents the exact location of active telecommunication cables (verified in 2010) installed in the Belgian Part of the North Sea.

UNDER EMBARGO - This dataset contains the data on porewater nutrients, sediment granulometry, and pigment concentrations that were collected in the C-power offshore wind farm in spring, summer, and autumn of 2022 for the OUTFLOW project. Data were gathered at increasing distances from the scour protection layer (SPL) of a wind turbine, 7, 15, 25, and 75 m away from the edge. Cores were collected by divers, and a boxcore was used for samples 75 m away. From these cores, porewater nutrients were collected with rhizon samplers, and cores were slices in 0.5 to 2 cm slices, and each slice was analyzed for total organic carbon, total nitrogen, granulometry, and algal pigment concentrations.

The Royal Decree of 20 March 2026 establishing the marine spatial plan for the period 2026 to 2034 in the Belgian marine areas defines 2 potential seaport expansion zones: Potential expansion of the Port of Ostend (Art. 16§2), Potential expansion of the Port of Zeebrugge (Art. 16§3). It replaces the 2020 Marine Spatial Plan. Please refer to the Belgian official gazette ("Moniteur belgeBelgisch Staatsblad") for official reference information.

The ceilometer CL51 employs a pulsed diode laser LIDAR technology, where short, powerful laser pulses are sent out in a vertical or near-vertical direction. The reflection of light (backscatter) caused by clouds, precipitation or other obscuration is analysed and used to determine the cloud base height, the cloud layer height and the amount of clouds (in octas) in different layers.

This dataset contains the orthophoto mosaics that were created following the floods of July 2021 in the valleys of the Vesdre, the Meuse and the Demer. 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 dataset includes orthophotos based on aerial photographs acquired in July 2021 by Hansa Luftbild, commissioned by the National Geographic Institute (NGI), following the floods in the zones of the Vesdre, a part of the Meuse downstream of Liège and the Demer. The resulting orthophoto mosaics are georeferenced in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. All orthophotos are in colour (RGB). The ground resolution (GSD) is 6.5 cm (4 cm above the Hoëgne). The spatial coverage of this dataset is limited to the affected zones. The data can be visualized via the corresponding web service (WMS). The data is available on request via https://ngi.be/aanbod/kaarten-en-fotos/luchtfotos-orthofotos/.
