Explanation of symbols

Dataset is not available.


The numbers in this table represent the surface area of various ecosystems in the Netherlands, such as forests, agricultural lands, lakes, and parks. Each ecosystem is distinguished by specific biotic and abiotic elements, and their interactions. The table presents the ecosystem extent, with data organized based on the surface area in square kilometers per ecosystem type and per province.

Data available from: 2013

Status of the figures:
The figures are provisional.

Changes as of March 2024:
Non, this is a new table

When will new figures be available?
New figures are published annually in March.

Description topics

Total area
Total area
Settlements and other artificial areas
This class represents ecosystems charactarized by buildings and other man-made structures, including residential, industrial, commercial, and transport areas. It excludes green ecosystems in the urban environmen, which area classified under 'Urban green and recreation'.
Total settlements and other artificial a
Total area of the main group 'Settlements and other artificial areas'.
Settlement areas
Includes residential, commercial and industrial areas and adjacent (small) roads, properties and front- and backyards.
Infrastructure
Includes land used for transport infrastructure, such as major roads, railways, airports and ports, including associated green areas (such as road verges). Includes extraction sites and dump areas.
Urban greenspace and recreation sites
This class represents urban greenspace such as public parks and other vegetated areas, as well as areas used for recreation and leisure activities such as sports and camping grounds.
Total urban greenspace and recreation si
Total area of the main group 'Urban greenspace and recreation sites'.
Urban greenspace
Includes areas with vegetation within or partly embraced within urban areas. This includes public parks and other public or private green space, including associated infrastructure such as bicycle and walking trails.
Sports and recreation sites
Includes areas used for recreation purposes. Includes among others cemeteries, zoos, theme parks, historical and botanical gardens, community gardens, sports grounds, camping grounds and leisure parks..
Cropland
This class represents areable land including intensively and extensively managed cropland, and temporary grasslands used for crop rotation.
Total cropland
Total area of the main group 'Cropland'.
Annual cropland
Includes cropland planted for annually or regularly harvested crops. They include arable land for potatoes, vegetables, cereals, industrial crops, pulses, floriculture and horticulture. Fallow land is also included in this category.
Temporary grassland
Includes temporary grasses (less than 5 years old) sown as intercrop, for silage and grazing. Due to its role in the annual crop rototation, this ecosystem is classified under cropland instead of grassland.
Permanent cropland
Includes areas with perennial crops. Mainly plantations of woody crops, vineyards, fruit and berry plantations, christmas tree plantations and nurseries.
(Semi-)natural cropland
Includes cropland with natural and semi-natural elements, such as strip cultivation and arable field margins.
Grassland
This class represents permanent grassland, including managed pastures used for agriculture and (semi-)natural grasslands. Temporary grasslands are excluded, which are classified under 'Cropland'.
Total grassland
Total area of the main group 'Grassland'.
Sown pastures and modified grassland
Includes pastures and other grassland primarily managed for agriculture use (grazed or mowed). Excludes temporary grasses.
Natural and semi-natural grassland
Omvat graslanden met een natuurlijke (hoofd)functie.
Forest and woodland
This class represents tree-dominated ecosystems, consisting of natural forests and cultivated forests for timber production.
Total forest and woodland
Total area of the main group 'Forest and woodland'.
Natural forest and tree lines
Includes various types of natural forests. Linear forest elements such as tree lines are included here.
Production forest
Includes forests that are mainly cultivated for timber production.
Other forest
Includes forest not under a distinct type of land management.
Heathland and drift sand areas
This class represents all heathland, inland dunes and drift sand ecosystems outside of coastal dunes.
Total heathland and drift sand areas

Heathland
Includes heathlands, characterised by low and closed vegetation cover, dominated by ericaceous shrubs.
Driftsand
Includes inland land dunes
Inland wetlands
This class represents all freshwater wetlands, including marshes; bogs; fens etc. It excludes open water.

Eutrophe and mesotrophe fens
Includes base-rich fens and other mesotrophic and eutrophic wetlands.
Rivers and canals
This class represents rivers, streams, canals and other permanent linear inland surface water features.
Total rivers and canals

Coastal salt marshes
Includes salt marshes and associated coastal wetlands, that are susceptible to periodic flooding by seawater.
Coastal dunes and beaches
Includes natural non-vegetated expanses of sand in coastal locations, such as beaches, dunes, shoals and shores.
