Reservation areas for sand extraction are designated regions identified for the purpose of sand mining. These areas support projects such as coastal protection, construction, and land reclamation. The extracted sand is vital for reinforcing beaches, preventing erosion, and maintaining coastline stability.
Moreover, commercial sand extraction plays a crucial role in the construction industry, supplying essential materials for concrete and asphalt. By carefully managing these reservation areas, authorities strive to balance resource demands with environmental conservation.
In the MSP Challenge this layer is editable and provides insight into the current identified reservation areas for sand. Players can plan new areas, or edit existing areas.

reserveringsgebied_voor_zandwinning
The “reserveringsgebied_voor_zandwinning” layer represents designated areas reserved for sand extraction. These areas are typically defined as polygons and are used to manage and regulate sand mining activities, ensuring that extraction is conducted in specific, controlled locations to minimize environmental impact and optimize resource use.
