Brabantse Delta Water Board Infrastructure and Management Data

The Legger is a collection of maps, books, and tables detailing water management assets within the Brabantse Delta Water Board's jurisdiction. It includes information on watercourses, dikes, weirs, locks, and other supporting works, specifying their status, location, size, shape, and responsible management entities. The dataset is published by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations under a CC0-1.0 license.
