Access to subsidence data
For subsidence, we refer to several datasets below. Please refer to Assumptions & limitations page for more information about the dataset.
Recent land subsidence
|
Data owner |
Sensar (hosted on the Climate Impact Atlas) |
|---|---|
|
Data repository |
|
|
Description |
The dataset shows where the land subsided or rose between 2020 and 2024, distinguishing between total land subsidence (shallow and deep processes combined) and subsidence from shallow processes only. |

Soil subsidence
|
Data owner |
Deltares, Wageningen Environmental Research, and the Dutch Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) (hosted on the Climate Impact Atlas) |
|---|---|
|
Data repository |
|
|
Description |
The map indicates the expected level of subsidence between 2020-2050 and 2020-2100 for different emission scenarios. The maps are made with a hypothetical indexation or fixation of the groundwater levels. |
|
Available time horizons |
|
|
Available climate scenarios |
Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute’s climate scenarios from 2014 (KNMI’14): KNMI GL (SSP2-4.5) and KNMI WH (SSP5-8.5). |

Loading-related subsidence
|
Data owner |
Deltares (hosted on the Climate Impact Atlas) |
|---|---|
|
Data repository |
|
|
Description |
The loading related subsidence data is intended to gain insight in the susceptibility of the subsurface to loading. The data does not indicate where the soil has been raised. Instead, the data provides a theoretical estimate which locations are susceptible to loading-related subsidence after a loading with 1 metre of sand. |

|
Description |
The pile rot risk map indicates the risk of pile rot at the neighbourhood level. The data shows the expected level of damage. It is important to note that the maps have a high degree of uncertainty. |

Differential settlement risk
| Data owner | Deltares (hosted on the Climate Impact Atlas) |
|---|---|
| Data repository | Risk of differential settlement |
| Description | The differential settlement risk map indicates the risk of subsidence-related differential settlements for buildings on shallow foundations, indicating the expected damage. It is important to note that the maps have a high degree of uncertainty. |
