Geological Model of Belgium (GMB)

In the scope of this axis, the GSB acts as a key provider in Belgium of geo-interpretation services with added-values or innovative data retrieval. Additional duty of GMB will aim to provide ‘Inspire-compliant’ geoscientific information for Belgium, in cooperation with or at the request of the competent authorities. Besides the new processing based on existing data, GMB will also benefit from priorities of campaigns oriented towards the acquisition of new data, applying both traditional approach of direct description (e.g. boreholes, field geological mapping, structural syntheses) and recent methods (e.g. PSInSAR).

Priority research projects will focus on:

  • Analyzing soil movements by radar interferometry technique PSInSAR;
  • Estimating the stability of the monuments using radar interferometry.

H3O – The Campine

The general scope of this project is to solve existing connection problems between the Flemish and Dutch geological and hydrogeological layer cake models in the Campine Region by producing cross-border, up-to-date, three-dimensional geological and hydrogeological models of the Cenozoic deposits, based on existing (hydro-) geological data.

GEPATAR: GEotechnical and Patrimonial Archives Toolbox for ARchitectural conservation in Belgium

The GEPATAR project started in September 2014 for a duration of four years and is funded by the BRAIN-be research programme of BELSPO. Aim of the project is to improve the management of built heritage in Belgium by integrating data from the archives of RBINS and RICH and by assessing the stability of monuments using radar interferometry.

Brabant Massif subcrop map
01/01/2004 to 31/12/2006

Subcrop map: Brabant Massif

The Brabant Massif is the basement of Flanders. It contains the oldest deposits known in Belgium, which are rocks that were deposited as sediments 550 million years old. A cover of young deposits, hides the largest part of the Brabant Massif. Only its southern part, close to the border of Flanders, is exposed in a few outcrops.

Tertiary isohypse-maps

By using the available geological datas (drillings, exposures, seismic profiles, geophysical logs...) isohypse-maps will be created at the base of each tertiary formations in Flanders and Walloon-Brabant. Using all exposures and drillings datas, extracted from the archives of the GSB (Geological Survey of Belgium), DOV (underground databank of...

Geological map of Wallonia

The update of the geological maps in Wallonia permits to collect new data and the treatment of the previous collected data since the first mapping campaign. This new geological cartography campaign is essentially based on new fieldwork.
