Cores, ribbons, scattered buildings in Flanders - state 2013

Description

This map shows a typological layout of the buildings in Flanders, where it is divided into cores, ribbons and scattered buildings. This classification is based on a maximum of a morphological approach. This contrasts with a policy demarcation, such as the legally established area demarcations via spatial implementation plans, or a demarcation that largely takes into account the level of activity, such as the division into urban, peri-urban and rural areas. This classification is done fully automatically on the basis of a specially developed algorithm based on a number of spatial variables. It builds on the methodology developed in earlier studies that have attempted to map the ribbon and core buildings in detail. The algorithm used was adjusted during interactive work sessions with experts from VITO and the Environment department. As a result, the following geodata layers were created: a polygon layer with the cores as contiguous built-up areas with a total size of at least 5ha and in which a total of at least 20 families live, and with a sufficiently high density of buildings (number > 30 buildings within a radius of 100m), or a sufficiently high surface area (footprint > 9500m2 within a radius of 100m) of buildings or a sufficiently high density of households (number > 60 households within a radius of 100m), a line layer with ribbons consisting of streets, located outside the core, that are built for at least 200m contiguously or of which at least 80% of the total street length is built a polygon layer with scattered buildings, being buildings that are not in the core or do not belong to ribbons, a polygon layer with areas that were left outside the analysis, these are all military domains, all monofunctional business parks larger than 3ha, and all campsites and holiday domains All these geodata layers are shown on this map. The large-scale reference file (GRB) was used as the data source for the buildings and administrative parcels. The Road Register was used for the roads. For the land take, the eponymous indicator published by the Environment Department was used. For the household density within the nuclei, the eponymous indicator published by the Environment Department was used. The military domains are those that have been legally established through the regional plans. The business parks are based on the GIS business parks of the Flemish Agency for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (VLAIO). The campsites and holiday domains come from the Biological Valuation Map (BWK) and the RuiTeR database of Tourism Flanders. The method was partially revised compared to previously published versions of this geodata layer. This geodata layer was therefore replaced in 2024 by a revised version for state 2013, in order to remain in line with the updated methodology used in the state 2022 format. More details about the method used for this typological classification can be found in the technical report: Tomas Crols, Lien Poelmans, Lorenz Hambsch, Stijn Vanacker, Peter Willems, Ann Pisman, Karolien Vermeiren and Joris Pieters (2024), Kernen, ribbons, distributed buildings in Flanders, condition 2013-2016-2019-2022.
