Inspire harmonised – carded landslides

The map contains as complete an inventory as possible of landscaping landscapes in a study area located west of Brussels, in the south of the provinces of West Flanders, East Flanders and Flemish Brabant. These include both very old landscapes of post-glacial origin integrated into the landscape and relatively young landscapes with a known (sometimes approximate) date of initiation. The ‘young’ landslides may occur within a larger, old land shift (local reactivation) or in an undegraded site (not affected by land shift in the past). Most of the landslides are still subject to movement, visible to, for example, skewed trees. The mapping of the landslides was carried out by a combination of field prospection and shadow map analysis derived from the laser scanning or LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging; OC GIS-Flanders, 2005).
