Redistribution of the shapefile with the watercourses of the Flemish Hydrographic Atlas (status 2020-08-07)

<p>This is a redistribution of a subdataset of the data source &#39;<a href="http://www.geopunt.be/catalogus/datasetfolder/020a452d-8cd2-41b7-9c64-2be367668837">Vlaamse Hydrografische Atlas - Waterlopen, 7 augustus 2020</a>&rsquo; (Flemish Hydrographic&nbsp;Atlas - Watercourses, 7th of August 2020), originally published by the Vlaamse Milieumaatschappij - afdeling Operationeel Waterbeheer (VMM, Flemisch Environmental Agency - division Operational Water Management) and distributed by &#39;Informatie Vlaanderen&#39; under a CC-BY compatible license. It is redistributed for reproducible, analytical workflows on Flemish Natura 2000 habitats and regionally important biotopes.</p> <p>The subdataset is a shapefile of lines&nbsp;that represent water courses in the Flemish region, identical to the shapefile&nbsp;<code>Vhag</code>&nbsp;in the original data source. The shapefile contains the centre axes of both navigable and non-navigable (classified) water courses, supplemented by some non-classified and non-navigable water courses. These water courses are part of the Flemish Hydrographic Atlas. The shapefile is maintained in a partnership of the Flemish provinces and Flemish regional institutions, with the division Operational Water Management of the VMM acting as the central manager.</p> <p>The data source is produced, owned and administered by the Flemish Environmental Agency - division Operational Water Management (VMM, Department of Environment of the Flemish government).</p>
