distance matrix between the centers of municipalities
This dataset contains a matrix of distances between all Belgian municipality centres as defined in the AdminVector product. The distance is in km and is rounded to an integer.

The distance matrix is the result of a calculation using the road network built with TomTom multinet data in the ArcGIS Pro Origin-Destination cost matrix tool. The distance between a point representing a commune centre and the road network is less than 170 metres. The calculation takes into account one-way roads and avoids special roads such as pedestrian zones, roads under construction, exceptional transport, ...

Annual, summer and winter mean temperature given in °C. The temperature 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.

In the follow-up Belspo funded 'CICADA' project (2019-2021, https://www.belspo.be/belspo/brain-be/projects/FinalReports/CICADAbe_FinRep.pdf), these Belgian climate model projections were used to adjust the spread of climate change signals based on the larger model ensemble of all available CMIP5 Global Climate Model runs (https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/) and EURO-CORDEX Regional Climate Model runs (https://euro-cordex.net/060378/index.php.en). This multi-model ensemble of climate change signals or factors were used to apply a statistical downscaling or more specifically a quantile perturbation method on the observational climate grid from the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium. From those ensembles, 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles of changes, corresponding to a mean (50th percentiles) and high (5th or 95th percentiles) impact scenario, were obtained for the variables: precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, global solar radiation and potential evapotranspiration.

Land register plan - situation on January 1st
Land register plan - situation on January 1st corresponds to the dataset of land register from the reference database for the land register data CadGIS. The land register plan is one of the elements that make up the patrimonial documentation. It is defined as “the graphic representation and assembling on a plan of all the cadastral plan parcels of the Belgian territory”. A plan parcel, such as defined in Article 2 of the Royal Decree of 30 July 2018, is a part of Belgian territory, geographically delimited and identified by the General Administration of Patrimonial Documentation on the land register plan, which corresponds to the ground surface area of one or more patrimonial cadastral parcel(s) (real estate property as mentioned in Article 472 of the 1992 Income Tax Code in respect of which the cadastral income is fixed). This dataset corresponds to the legal situation as defined on 1 January of the reference year. It is composed of thirteen geometric classes and one class without geometry. The first class includes the cadastral plan parcels present in the corresponding administrative unit. The second class includes the buildings managed by the General Administration of Patrimonial Documentation, the third class includes the buildings managed by the regions, the fourth class includes equipment and tools, the fifth class includes water bodies, the sixth class includes cadastral blocks, the seventh, easements and paths, the eighth, toponymic lines, the ninth, toponymic points, the tenth, property boundaries, the eleventh, parcel numbers, the twelfth, cadastral divisions, and finally, the thirteenth, cadastral limits. The class without geometry corresponds to the table of tax situations. The dataset can be freely downloaded as a zipped shapefiles.
Land register plan - situation on January 1st is extracted from the reference database for the land register data, CadGIS, whose situation is fixed on January 1st of the reference year. The land register plan is continuously updated by the Patrimonial Documentation on the basis of information collected during legal changes (mutations) (on the basis of acts, declarations, judgements and rulings) and physical changes (on the basis of declarations, plans, documents, expertises and information provided by the municipalities) to the properties, as well as through improvement operations undertaken at the initiative of the Patrimonial Documentation as described in articles 5 to 8 of the Royal Decree of 30 July 2018. The land register plan is a set of data from the Geographical Information System of the Patrimonial Documentation and is mainly made up of the following categories of information: real estate property: cadastral plan parcels (property boundaries), buildings as well as certain material and equipment structures; street names, addresses, named places; reconstitutions perimeters as well as perimeters as regards polder and watering areas; administrative and cadastral limits.

The ratio of the number of people aged over 80 to the number of people aged over 65 according to official statistics, per administrative entity (region, province, district and municipality) for Wallonia
Supplier: Statbel (IWEPS calculations) Comparable data over time, available here from 1985. Each year, Statbel, the Belgian statistical office, calculates the legal population figure as determined by Belgian law. For this, Statbel draws demographic data from the national register (RN). The RN is a legal tool that has existed in Belgium since 1983 which centralizes the population registers established in each Belgian municipality from 1846. It registers all residents of Belgium in different registers: mainly the population register and foreigners (the Belgians and foreigners domiciled - authorized to settle or stay for more than three months - in Belgium), the waiting register (political refugee candidates) and diplomatic and consular registers as well as that of European officials and members of other institutions international organizations (NATO) and their families. The official population of Belgium, which serves as the basis for the calculations of demographic indices, counts all of the RN people who have their main residence in Belgium, excluding the waiting register.

The data set contains a seamless polygonal layer representing the land cover in Belgium for the year 2012 and the year 2018. 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 2012 and 2018.
The CHA18_BE layer has been produced by a visual comparison of the i2012 and i2018 images, Landsat and SPOT/IRS images respectively which cover Belgium, The topographic maps at the 1:10 000 and 1:50 000 scales and orthophotographs have been used as additional data.
