Valorisation de la carte pédologique de Belgique dans la cartographie de la vulnérabilité à la pollution des nappes d'eau souterraine

Using the Belgian soil map for mapping groundwater vulnerability. Groundwater vulnerability mapping is a critical activity in the implementation of the water resources protection policy. The vulnerability of groundwater bodies is largely determined by the properties of the overlying soil. The soil map and associated data bases contain spatially distributed information, which can be easily introduced into the vulnerability mapping procedure. In this paper, soil information is used in the vulnerability mapping procedure through the "partial vulnerability from the soil" (VPS) concept. Three metho... Mehr ...
