What this layer shows

CultGIS describes areas of cultural-historical interest: landscapes whose historic structure, such as field division, reclamation patterns and water-management works, is regarded as particularly valuable. It is a knowledge base of the RCE and not a designation or protection regime, so no prohibition or permit requirement follows from it. The waardering field gives the RCE's relative valuation, where a higher value means a higher cultural-historical valuation. Use the dataset as a signal to weigh cultural heritage early in the design; each area has its own RCE area description in pdf.

Assessment

In these presets

Planning

What carries through into the omgevingsplan and the watertoets: Natura 2000, the national reservations for new autowegen, the Wkpb restrictions, beschermde gezichten, World Heritage and the archaeological and cultural-historical maps of the RCE, the flood defences, protection zones and peilbesluiten of the waterschap, the ROR risk areas and the province's drinking water protection. The omgevingsplan and the bestemmingsplan themselves are not available as a map layer; you read the rules in the Omgevingsloket.

Heritage

For the heritage and archaeology desk study: rijksmonumenten with the link to the register, gemeentelijke monumenten from the Wkpb register, rijksbeschermde stads- en dorpsgezichten, world heritage with buffer zones, rijksbeschermde groenaanleggen, the Archeologische Monumentenkaart and the cultuurhistorische aandachtsgebieden from CultGIS. The gemeentelijke archeologische verwachtingskaart and the municipal heritage register remain authoritative and are not included here.
