  • Top10Vector – Railway network is the dataset of the railway network in Belgium. This data set includes three classes. First class: rail network kilometer markers. Second class: railway stop. Third class: railway track segments. This dataset can be downloaded via the hyperlink in 'Access'.

  • The eTOD digital terrain model (DTM) is a homogeneous and regular point grid indicating the elevation of the ground level in order to make a model of its surface. This DTM is obtained by resampling raw altimetric source data from the Flemish and Walloon Regions, grouped in Lambert 72 and with a resolution of 1 m; as well as data obtained internally by direct photogrammetric recording of structure points and lines based on the most recent aerial photographs for all areas not covered by regional data. For this DTM, the resolution and coordinate reference system are used as defined by the eTOD specifications.

  • This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 1980s to 1989, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images is 10 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 1989. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available. High-resolution data can be ordered via https://shop.ngi.be/fr/photos-aeriennes/

  • Top10Vector – Hydrography is the dataset of the Belgian hydrography. This dataset includes six classes. First class: waterway kilometer markers of the Belgian navigable waterways. Second class: watercourse surfaces. Third class: watercourse segments. Fourth class: water points, which means points where the water arrives at the surface or disappears into the subsoil. Fifth class: wetlands, which means zones where the soil is saturated or regularly flooded. Sixth class: water surfaces. This dataset can be downloaded via the link in 'Access'.

  • 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)

  • This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 1970s to 1979, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images ranges from 25 to 50 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 1971, 1976, 1977, 1978 and 1979. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available. High-resolution data can be ordered via https://shop.ngi.be/fr/photos-aeriennes/

  • This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 1960s to 1969, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images ranges from 10 to 50 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 1961, 1966 and 1969. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available. High-resolution data can be ordered via https://shop.ngi.be/fr/photos-aeriennes/

  • Points Of Interest - Natural elements contains point elements relating to nature, namely remarkable trees and underground cavities in Belgium.

  • This dataset corresponds to the dataset of address points on the Belgian territory. The result is obtained by merging the three regions on the basis of XML files which has been supplied to BOSA for the cooperation agreement BeStAddress. The dataset is freely downloadable.

  • This dataset comprises historical orthophotos from the 1990s to 1999, derived from aerial surveys carried out by the National Geographic Institute (NGI). The ground sample distance (GSD) of the images ranges from 25 to 100 cm. The mosaics were created using aerial photography campaigns dating from 1995, 1997, 1998 and 1999. The original photographs were digitised and orthorectified in the Lambert 2008 coordinate system. The spatial coverage for each year corresponds to the areas for which photographs were available.
