Description
The Netherlands' signalling map indicates the percentage of natural gas pipes classified as 'to be replaced' at the neighborhood level, using CBS Wijk and Buurtkaart boundaries. The dataset, provided by the Ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken en Koninkrijksrelaties, categorizes pipes based on materials such as asbestos cement and grey cast iron that have been collectively agreed for removal. It includes a specific list of materials, such as AC, GGIJ, and various PE types created for 1978, that are flagged for replacement.
Use Cases
Prioritizing infrastructure investment based on the percentage of replaceable pipes per neighborhood.
Mapping spatial risk for gas network failures based on pipe material classifications.
Planning neighborhood-level renovation projects using the geospatial 'to be replaced' indicators.
Analyzing the distribution of aging pipe materials like asbestos cement and grey cast iron across a region.
Strengths
Provides a specific, agreed-upon list of pipe materials flagged for replacement, including AC, GGIJ, and PE types.
Offers data at a granular neighborhood level using official CBS Wijk and Buurtkaart boundaries.
Available in multiple geospatial formats (WMS, WFS, PNG, HTML) for different analysis needs.
