Dataset of Cone Penetration Tests (CPTs) to study soil heterogeneity

The research involves site investigations at three locations along the drainage canal “Achterwaterschap” in the western part of the Alblasserwaard region in the Netherlands. This area is part of the administration of Waterschap Rivierenland (WSRL). The site investigations are performed at the dike posts AC 075, AC 090 and AC 251. The in situ tests are performed in the inner toe of the dike.  The research has been carried out for Rijkswaterstaat WVL. Rijkswaterstaat is part of the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management and responsible for the design, construction, management and maintenance of the main infrastructure facilities in the Netherlands. Rijkswaterstaat has given consent for making this dataset publicly available. The dataset includes a total of 60 CPTs at close distance, spreaded over three different sites. The sites are located at 1.5 km distance (AC075 and AC090) and 15 km distance (AC251). The dataset is described in the following reports.

How can co-creation support capacity building for adaptive spatial planning? Exploring evidence from a co-creative planning process in the Netherlands

To cope with the multi-faceted challenges our world is increasingly confronted with, new planning approaches aimed at integration and collaboration are adopted. Co-creation is one of them. In literature, co-creation is described as facilitating innovation and creativity. Similar to other collaborative approaches, it can build institutional capacity and thereby adaptivity for coping with current challenges. Through an in-depth study of the case of replanning the Hegewarren polder in the Netherlands, we show that a co-creation process can support the development of institutional capacity by enhancing its three components – intellectual, social, and political capital

Replication Dataset: Analyzing natural bed-level dynamics to mitigate the morphological impact of river interventions

The river bed level in low-land rivers like the Rhine branches in the Netherlands changes continuously on various spatial and temporal scales. We use biweekly (2005-2020) multibeam bed-level measurements of the river Bovenrijn/Waal to study the morphological changes on multiple scales using a wavelet transform. The dataset contains the unfiltered and the filtered results that were presented in the article. The data is aggregated in the interactive atlas to show the bed-level changes in time and as function of the discharge.</p
