Mineable Sand Depth refers to the specific depth at which sand can be extracted from the seabed or riverbed for various uses, such as coastal protection, construction, and land reclamation. This depth is determined based on factors like sediment composition, environmental impact, and extraction feasibility. By identifying and managing these depths, authorities ensure a sustainable supply of sand while minimizing ecological disruption and maintaining the health of aquatic ecosystems.
In the MSP Challenge, the Mineable Sand Depth layer is non-editable and shows the depths at which sand can be extracted. It provides essential insights for sustainable resource management and planning.

The "win_01_12" layer from the Delfstoffen Informatie Systeem (DIS) provides detailed information about subsurface deposits, including the availability and characteristics of sand, clay, and peat layers up to a depth of 12 meters.
The grid was realigned to the EPSG:3035 projection to ensure accurate spatial representation. Then, values were reclassified and grouped into 2-meter intervals for better data organization and analysis.
