Neighborhoods Overlay

What the Neighborhoods Overlay is

Example of the Neighborhoods Overlay

The Neighborhoods overlay shows the division of the project area in neighborhoods. These neighborhoods also contain statistical data concerning the whole neighborhood.
The data used for this overlay is from the CBS Wijk- en Buurtkaart. See for more information on this dataset the geo data page. This overlay is added by default. If the project is from a location outside the Netherlands or an empty map, the Neighborhoods overlay will show a division in 4 equal parts: Northwest, Northeast, Southwest and Southeast.

Additional information displayed in hover panel

Hover panel displays additional information

When clicking on a specific location in the map, the hover panel gives additional information about the:

• name of the neighborhood
• the number of households
• the number of inhabitants
• the population density
• the coverage percentage
• the average household

Keep in mind that this data is for the whole of the neighborhood. If in your project is only a small part of the neighborhood, the data is not recalculated for that part.
