Canals and neighbourhoods

This file contains canals and neighbourhoods located within the province of Groningen. The province of Groningen focuses on the preservation and possibly restoration of landscape and cultural historically valuable canals and neighbourhoods and the associated elements such as abandoned (sluices), bridges, etc. These canals and neighbourhoods are characteristic of the Veenkoloniën, the southern part of the Westerkwartier and some small areas in Westerwolde. Many channels and neighbourhoods have already been muted because they have lost their function. The canals and neighbourhoods are further affected by agricultural use, in particular by the gradual damping of waste material. Because of the lack of maintenance, many districts land. As a result, the peat colonial landscape loses one of its characteristic features. To prevent this, Provincial Environmental Regulation 2016 lays down rules for the protection of the remaining channels and districts and the related supporting elements.本数据集收录了格罗宁根省（Groningen）境内的运河与街区。 格罗宁根省致力于保护并可对具备景观与历史文化价值的运河、街区及其附属设施（如废弃水闸、桥梁等）开展修复工作。此类运河与街区是泥炭垦殖区（Veenkoloniën）、西夸蒂尔地区（Westerkwartier）南部以及西沃尔德（Westerwolde）境内部分小型区域的典型风貌代表。诸多运河与街区已因功能丧失而被湮没，同时还受到农业活动的负面影响，尤以废弃物的逐步淤积为甚。由于缺乏维护，诸多片区的土地状况持续恶化，进而导致泥炭垦殖景观丧失其标志性特征之一。为防止此类情况发生，《2016年省级环境条例》针对保护现存运河、街区及其相关附属设施制定了明确规范。
