Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (RBINS), is as part of the Belgian Federal Science Policy, a Federal State institution involved in important scientific research activities and carrying out public service missions
The Management Unit of the North Sea Mathematical Models and the Scheldt estuary (MUMM), is a department of RBINS. MUMM adopts a 'triple M' strategy: Monitoring, Modelling and Management
Belgian Federal Science Policy, has his mission in the preparation, execution and evaluation of science policy and its extensions and the development of a permanent knowledge resource within scientific and technical spheres at the service of the Federal Authority
The Belgian Marine Data Centre, is a group of scientists within MUMM, whose expertise is oriented towards the management and the analysis of marine environmental data. Hosting currently two online databases IDOD (Integrated and Dynamical Oceanographic Data Management) and ODAS (Oceanographic Data Acquisition System) and different research programmes like Revamp and SPSD I and II

SMNS I as the catalyst of IDODConditions: Coherent data set with high quality design and well documented
Safe storage of data for future research (new analysis techniques)
Performant analysis tools
Objectives: To provide structured, homogenized and validated oceanographic data necessary for any scientific research, decision making and sustainable development
To establish, manage and promote an integrated database of marine environmental data, ensuring a smooth and scientifically sound data flow between the data producers and the
end-users

Gilson’s collection
Constituted between 1899 and 1910 to better understand the relationship between marine organisms and their environment.
A total of 14000 sampling events, 3000 for sediment point-samplings sequentially with 1100 benthos dredge-track-samplings

Revalidate sampling information, evaluate the geographic precision and analysis of sediment information stored at the RBINS reaches his end. Fitting historic samples for incorporation into information systems and current quality standard requirements is at hand.
A century later we are near to Gilson his original goal: build a map of benthic habitats and superimpose species distribution as well as species associations maps

Offshore wind farm
C-Power Ltd. far shore wind farm project on the Thornton sandbank.
60 Turbines of 3.6 MW with an estimated production of 710 GWh/yearDistance to coast 27 km, depth 6-20 m, surface wind farm area 26.4 km²
Monitoring:- Sediment and hydrodynamics - Noise and vibrations - Meteorological conditions - Benthos and fishes -
- Bird migration, staging, and collision - Marine mammals - Electromagnetic fields - Visual aspects -
The project will result in a large dataset with long-term data with high spatial resolution to analyze the environmental effects of the construction of a wind farm on the ‘Thornton’ sandbank, using the BACI -Before After Control Impact – design.
