‘Top10Vector – Railway network’ is the dataset of the railway network in Belgium. This dataset includes 3 feature types, namely the railway track segments [RA_railwaytracksegment], railway stops [RA_railwaystop] and railway kilometer markers [RA_railwaykilometremarker]. The dataset can be downloaded via the links in 'Access' at the bottom of this page.

This web service allows viewing the NGI data which comply with the INSPIRE specifications. It gives an overview of the INSPIRE data which are for sale.

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.

The entities included in the dataset represent the Belgian rail transport network in the sense of the Inspire European directive. The dataset comprises several classes and is in accordance with the INSPIRE specifications. The RailLink class represents, in a linear manner, all of the rail links between each pair of dots for the network considered. The RailwayStationNode class represents occasionally all of the stations located along the network. In addition to this are two classes without geometry. The RailwatType class ranks the segments according to the type of rail transport for which they were designed. All the segments for this dataset belong to the train category. The "RailwaytElectrification" class lists the segments according to whether they are electrified or not.

This webservice allows the Top10Vector product, containing topographical vector data covering the whole of Belgium, to be visualised. The product consists of 35 feature types grouped into 8 different topics: ‘Constructions, ‘Particular zones, ‘Land cover and vegetation, ‘High-voltage network, ‘Hydrography’, ‘Local relief’, ‘Railway network’ and ‘Road network’. The link to the webservice is available under 'Access' at the bottom of this page.
