The national wastewater-based epidemiological surveillance monitors public health parameters in several wastewater treatment plants across Belgium. The PMMoV virus is an indicator of human faecal contamination used to estimate the population load in wastewater samples. The results of this dataset consist of PMMoV 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.

The files contain the population characteristics (total, gender and/or age groups) by municipality 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.

Top10Vector – Land cover and vegetation is the vector dataset of the land use of unbuilt land areas in Belgium. This data set includes three classes. First class: isolated vegetation. Second class: land cover zones. Third class: linear vegetation. This dataset can be downloaded via the link in 'Access'.

Top10Vector – Hydrography is the dataset of the Belgian hydrography. This dataset includes six classes. First class: waterway kilometer markers of the Belgian navigable waterways. Second class: watercourse surfaces. Third class: watercourse segments. Fourth class: water points, which means points where the water arrives at the surface or disappears into the subsoil. Fifth class: wetlands, which means zones where the soil is saturated or regularly flooded. Sixth class: water surfaces. This dataset can be downloaded via the link in 'Access'.

Top10Vector – Railway network is the dataset of the railway network in Belgium. This data set includes three classes. First class: rail network kilometer markers. Second class: railway stop. Third class: railway track segments. This dataset can be downloaded via the hyperlink in 'Access'.

The data set has been established according to the INSPIRE format. It presents in the form of polygons the breakdown of Belgium in almost 20,000 statistical sectors. The statistical sector is the basic territorial unit resulting from the subdivision of the territory of municipalities by STATBEL since 1970 for the dissemination of its statistics at a finer level than the municipal level. A statistical sector cannot extend over two municipalities and any point in the municipal territory is part of one and the same statistical sector. The 1970 and 1981 versions are shown in analogue format while the 2001, 2011, 2018, 2019 etc. versions are available in digital vector format. The files can be linked to the data on population, housing and disposable income on the website of Statbel.

The national wastewater-based epidemiological surveillance of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) monitors the RSV presence in several wastewater treatment plants across Belgium. This dataset contains the results per treatment plant since the beginning of the surveillance in January 2024. The results consist of the RSV 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.

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.

Top10Vector - Road network is the vector dataset of the Belgian road network. It contains five classes. First class: dirt roads. Second class: kilometer markers along the road network. Third class: path segments. Fourth class: road obstructions. Fifth class: road segments. This dataset aims at representing the surface area of the road network on the Belgian territory and is not designed for route calculations. This dataset can be downloaded via the hyperlink in 'Access'.

Top10Vector is Belgium's series of topographic vector data. The dataset contains 35 feature classes, which are divided into eight themes (road network, railway network, high-tension network, constructions, land cover and vegetation, local relief and particular zones). Each theme can be downloaded separately via the metadata page of the relevant theme, or collectively as Top10Vector via the link in 'Access' at the bottom of this page.
