Territorial divisions
Under the territorial divisions are grouped different datasets that represent fully recognised Belgian geographical units. The AdminVector dataset encompasses the statistical sectors defined by the FPS Economy, the administrative units maintained by the FPS Finance and their centres, as well as the boundary stones. The Flemish municipal mergers, included in this product, are not valid until Jan. 1, 2025. (More info at https://www.vlaanderen.be/lokaal-bestuur/samenwerking-fusies-regiovorming-en-verzelfstandiging/fusietrajecten-2019-2024 )
The datasets of the judicial cantons and judicial districts are built on the basis of their definition in the Judicial Code. The dataset of electoral districts is built on the basis of its definition in the Electoral Code. The dataset of the postal districts contains the boundaries of the Belgian postcodes managed by bpost.
