Thickness clay cover
The map of clay cover thickness is also a product of the peat thickness map that was compiled by Alterra Wageningen UR (2016) on behalf of the province of South Holland. Profile... -
Soil suitability map - settlement sensitivity
Building on soft soil requires insight into the occurrence of “soft” layers in the subsurface. Soft layers are defined as layers that have a low bearing capacity. The thickness... -
Soil suitability map - cumulative clay thickness
This map shows the cumulative thickness of the clay layers in the Holocene subsoil in meters. This information was used to determine the suitability of the subsoil in the... -
Thickness oxidizable peat
The peat thickness map was drawn up by Alterra Wageningen UR (2016) on behalf of the province of South Holland. The aim was to gain insight into the areas where peat oxidation... -
Soil suitability map - reliability
This map shows the resulting spatial distribution of the reliability of the maps over settlement sensitivity, minimum foundation depth and suitability for construction. In the... -
Historical subsidence due to peat oxidation
Picture of the historical subsidence due to peat oxidation in the province of Utrecht in m/yr. based on the height data collected in the years between 1955 and 1975 by the... -
Soil suitability map - minimum foundation depth
Areas in which load-bearing sand layers lie shallow in the soil profile are generally more suitable for development than areas in which these layers lie at a greater depth. In... -
Bottom peat meadow areas
The file contains the settlement-sensitive peat soils in Gelderland. Settlement is the process by which soil is compressed under the influence of a load. Water and air are... -
Peatmapping
Map shows where the peat soils have disappeared. -
Soil suitability map - cumulative thickness of sand
This map shows the cumulative thickness of the sand layers in the Holocene subsoil in metres. This information was used to determine the suitability of the subsoil in the... -
Soil suitability map - suitability for building
This map shows the suitability of the subsoil in the province of Utrecht for (traditional) building. The term 'traditional' refers to structures made of stone or concrete with a... -
Clay deck on peat
The map shows the thickness of the clay cover (as the top layer, at ground level) on peat soils. Knowledge about the presence and thickness of the clay cover says something... -
Bodemgeschiktheidskaart - maaivelddaling na belasting
Deze kaart geeft de hoogteverandering na belasting ten opzichte van de huidige hoogte van het maaiveld weer. Het patroon dat de kaart toont is vergelijkbaar met het patroon van...
