An hillshade is a homogeneous and regular points grid, indicating the grey tone deriving from their orientation relative to the chosen fictitious light source. The Hillshade DTM 1m is a representation of the hillshading of the DTM 1m.

This view service allows visualization of the Hillshade DTM1m, the shaded version of the digital terrain model at a resolution of 1m.

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 aerial photos themselves are not part of the service. 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/.

An hillshade is a homogeneous and regular points grid, indicating the grey tone deriving from their orientation relative to the chosen fictitious light source. The Hillshade DSM 1m is a representation of the hillshading of the DSM 1m.

DSM 1m is a homogeneous and regular point grid indicating the height of the Earth’s surface level in order to model its landscape. DSM 1m is achieved by interpolating in Lambert 2008 source data in Lambert 72 and at a 1m-resolution from the Flemish and Brussels Regions, and by adding Lambert 2008 data at 1m-resolution from the Walloon Region.

The DSM 1m, digital surface model at 1m-resolution, is a homogeneous and regular point grid indicating the height of the Earth’s surface level in order to model its landscape, also including objects on the surface such as vegetation and buildings. The DSM 1m is achieved by interpolating in Lambert 2008 source data in Lambert 72 and at a 1m-resolution from the Flemish (2013-2015) and Brussels (2021) Regions, and by adding Lambert 2008 data at 1m-resolution from the Walloon Region (2021-2022).

Annual, summer and winter mean potential evapotranspiration given in respectively mm/year and mm/3 months and based on the Penman-Monteith definition. The potential evapotranspiration fields are available for the future target year 2085, which corresponds to the middle of the 30-year period 2071-2100, and for mean and high impact scenarios corresponding respectively to the 50th and 95th percentiles of the change factors.

Annual and seasonal precipitation indices given in number of days: 1/ Wet days: Number of days with precipitation > 0.1 mm/day for winter, autumn, spring, summer; 2/ Dry days: Number of days with precipitation < 0.1 mm/day for winter, autumn, spring, summer; 3/ Average length of dry spells: Mean duration of minimum three consecutive days with precipitation < 0.1 mm/day; 4/ Maximum length of dry spells: Longest period of minimum three consecutive days with precipitation < 0.1 mm/day, occurring once in 20 years. The precipitation indices are available for the future target year 2085, which corresponds to the middle of the 30-year period 2071-2100, and for mean and high impact scenarios corresponding respectively to the 50th, and 5th or 95th percentiles of the change factors.

This webservice allows viewing a digital surface model. It is a homogeneous and regular points grid which indicates the height above the surface of the earth, either the soil or any other permanent and visible element in the landscape (vegetation, construction,…). These data represent the situation of the landscape resulting from the July 2021 floods in het areas of the Vesdre, of part of the Meuse downstream from Liège and of the Demer. The heights are given relative to the Belgian zero level (fictitious zero of Uccle). The data have a resolution (size of the meshes of the regular grid) of 20 cm.
