Spatializing runoff water across Belgian territories

Project description

This research spatialises the spaces of runoff water on the public domain in the Belgian territory. More precisely it explores the segment of runoff in the water cycle that has not been systematically considered in water management. It develops a systemic view, where multi-scale representations communicate conflicting issues, potentials and unseen synergies. The methodology is applied on two transboundary case studies at the scale of the sub-watershed.
