Redistribution of the map: hedgerows in Northern Belgium on the topographical map of 1969 (1952-1969)

This map displays the location of hedgerows, as shown on the 1969 topographic map (created between 1952-1969). The The National Geographic Institute of Belgium usually represented hedgerows as a linear pattern of thin, closely spaced dots. Using AI and GIS, they have been converted into lines. Purpose of creation: Suitable for landscape research, landscape ecology, and studies on landscape perception, as well as for selecting appropriate locations for the (re)planting of hedgerows and tree rows based on cultural-historical patterns.
