Dutch Building and Address Registry Documentation

This is a copy of the Basisregistratie Adressen en Gebouwen (BAG) dataset provided by the Dutch government. The Building and Address Registry provides an extensive overview of dutch building and address data.

Key data in the building and address registration includes:

• Buildings, including year of construction, status and interior/exterior geometric shapes;

• Residential objects, including primary and secondary addresses, object purposes, the surface area, status, the location and interior/exterior geometric shapes;

• Berth and Pitch data;

• Places of residence, including name, status and geometric shapes;

• Address numbers, including housenumber, houseletter, housenumberextension, postalcode, type and status;

• Public spaces, including, name, shortname, type and status;

• Active postalcodes and addresses.

The data in the BAG dataset is converted from XML format to a table-like structure. Similar to JSON objects, XML objects can contain nested structures and lists, which are normalized in this dataset.

All geometries use as their coordinate reference system (crs) the EPSG:28992 also known as Amersfoort / Rijksdriehoek New. Geometries can easily be converted into a more widely used CRS like WGS84 (used in Google Maps). An example query is given which can be used for the conversion between reference systems.
