DSI — General Plans of Construction — Indicative Points

This dataset contains the digital vectorial version of all the plan elements — of the type of points indicative — of the general plans of construction. A plan element is an object by which the government concerned reflects the scope of (part of) the spatial option it has taken on the basis of certain urban planning regulations on the graphic plan, if it considers it necessary. This object is conceptually always traced back to a plane, line or point, to which a certain legend symbol has been assigned. In order to ensure the link between a “location” and the “full set of requirements applicable at that location”, it is necessary to unravel a plan in some complementary geodata layers in vector format. In this way, we obtain an unambiguous link between prescription texts and their corresponding plan elements. Requirements linked to linear or point-shaped plan elements, unlike those linked to planes, can never cover underlying plan elements in the sense that they replace them. In a plan, urban planning regulations can be added that apply to an area, line or location that the plan creator does not want to geometrically determine. These are the so-called indicative indications. There are three types of indicative indications: points, lines and overprints. The plan elements are available in this dataset to the extent that they have already been uploaded by the relevant municipal authority, which owns the data and is responsible for the content.
