Redistribution of the Natura 2000 habitat map of Flanders (version 2025)

Description

This is a redistribution of a subdataset of the data source Biologische Waarderingskaart en Natura 2000 Habitatkaart - Toestand 2025, originally published by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO) (De Saeger et al. 2025; see also De Saeger et al. 2017) and distributed by 'Digitaal Vlaanderen' under a CC-BY compatible license. It was redistributed in order to make it more easily findable and useful (in the long run) for reproducible, analytical workflows on Flemish Natura 2000 habitats and regionally important biotopes.

The subdataset is a shapefile of geospatial polygons of BWK and Natura 2000 habitat types in the Flemish Region, identical to the shapefile 'BwkHab' in the original data source.

Notes

This is a redistribution of data originally distributed by 'Digitaal Vlaanderen'.
