The Copernicus Urban Atlas (UA) provides European, comparable and detailed land use and land cover maps for the main Functional Urban Areas (FUAs). The Urban Atlas Street Tree Layer (UA-STL) is a separate layer of the Urban Atlas 2012. It includes contiguous rows or patches of trees covering 500 m² or more with a minimum width of 10 m within the urban mask of the Urban Atlas 2012. Gaps between tree patches or within a larger patch that are less than 10m wide are included in the Street Tree Layer. There is no thematic content other than the presence or absence of trees. The UA-STL is a new product and no accuracy threshold was provided as part of the Urban Atlas specifications. The UA STL product validated currently covers just over 7% of the total UA2012 area.

Riparian zones represent transitional areas occurring between land and freshwater ecosystems, characterised by distinctive hydrology, soil and biotic conditions and strongly influenced by the stream water. They provide a wide range of riparian functions (e.g. chemical filtration, flood control, bank stabilization, aquatic life and riparian wildlife support, etc.) and ecosystem services. The Riparian Zones products will support the objectives of several European legal acts and policy initiatives, such as the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020, the Habitats and Birds Directives and the Water Framework Directive. Two complementary product groups provide detailed information on the state and characteristics of riparian zones across Belgium: 1. Land Cover / Land Use (LCLU) 2. Green Linear Elements (GLE)

The eTOD digital terrain model (DTM) is a homogeneous and regular point grid that models the height of the ground level for Belgian territory and the height of the sea level in the maritime zone. The primary source is the NGI DTM 5m, which is itself compiled based on the most recent altimetry data of the three Belgian regions and is periodically updated per map sheet at a scale of 1:50,000 using recent stereoscopic aerial images. Where available, updates from the notification platform for aviation obstacles and terrain changes are also integrated. For this DTM, the resolution (1 arcsecond) and the coordinate reference system (WGS84 + EGM2008) are used as defined in the eTOD specifications.

This web service allows visualization of the Points Of Interest (POI) indicating the location of places of interest in Belgium, collected by NGI. The dataset consists of 97 POI types grouped into 6 classes (natural elements, religious elements, patrimonial elements, elements of general interest, infrastructures, economy).

INSPIRE compliant discovery service for geographic information made available by the Belgian Federal Government.

This web service allows the visualization of altimetry data. More specifically, it allows to visualize the National Geographic Institute's digital terrain model and the contours associated with it. This service is compliant with the INSPIRE specifications.

The data set contains a seamless polygonal layer representing the land cover in Belgium for the year 2018. The dataset is INSPIRE compliant.

This service allows the visualization of the orthophoto mosaics that were created following the floods of July 2021 in the valleys of the Vesdre, the Meuse and the Demer. The data is accessible via a Web Map Service (WMS). Orthophotos are aerial photographs that have been geometrically corrected (orthorectified) to eliminate distortions caused by terrain relief, lens distortion, and camera tilt. Unlike raw aerial imagery, orthophotos have a uniform scale and accurate geometry, making them suitable for cartography, measurements, and visual analysis. This specific service includes orthophotos based on aerial photographs acquired in July 2021 by Hansa Luftbild, commissioned by the National Geographic Institute (NGI), following the floods in the zones of the Vesdre, a part of the Meuse downstream of Liège and the Demer. The resulting orthophoto mosaics are georeferenced in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. All orthophotos are in colour (RGB). The ground resolution (GSD) of the original data is 6.5 cm (4 cm above the Hoëgne). Through this service, the images can be viewed at a maximum resolution of 25 cm. The spatial coverage of this service is limited to the affected zones.

This web service allows viewing datasets from Buildings

The entities included in dataset represent the Belgian waterway transport network in the sense of the Inspire European directive. The dataset comprises several classes and is in accordance with the INSPIRE specifications. The class represents, in a linear manner, all of the waterway links between each pair of dots for the network considered. In addition to this is one class without geometry. The RestrictionForWaterCehicles class specifies for each segment the maximum tonnage of the building using the segment.
