Part of the 1m DTM for Walloon Region, Belgium. Credit: Contains elevation data from the Service public de Wallonie (SPW) - Relief de la Wallonie, Modèle Numérique de Terrain (MNT) 2013-2014

Introduction

The Belgium-Walloon 5m and 25m elevation models (Relief de la Wallonie, Modèle Numérique de Terrain (MNT) 2013-2014) are digital terrain models (DTM) produced by EMD from 1m gridded data released by the "Service public de Wallonie (SPW)". The elevation data with windPRO is in either 5m x 5m grid or a 25m x 25m grid - and have a spatial coverage for the whole of the Walloon region. The DTM models were produced by LIDAR surveys in years 2013-2014 with 0.78-0.96 scanning points per square meter. The 5m and 25m datasets made available by EMD represents the data status of February 2020.

    • Horizontal: N/A

License and Attribution

The product belongs to the open data of the Walloon Region. These open data are licensed under a regional open license. The licence provides the open data with "no limitations to public access" on condition that the "Service public de Wallonie (SPW)" are credited as the origin of the data. As such, when using the dataset, the user must ensure that the source note contains the following information - and to ackknowledge EMD, windPRO and its data providers:
