Direct selection on the map

Go to:

DINOShop is the central portal to data on the Dutch subsurface. These data can be requested per category and users can search for them in three ways: with an NITG-number, a set of x,y co-ordinates or by defining a rectangle defined by x,y co-ordinates. In the data selection process, users can indicate the radius of the area of interest surrounding the x,y co-ordinate in which they are interested. For borings and cone penetration tests, they can also include a parameter for end depth.

Once the request for data has been submitted, the user will be sent an e-mail -as soon as all the requested data have been collected- with a URL from which the data can be downloaded. The data are furnished in the form of tab-spaced ASCII text files (click here for an example) and an XML file (click here for an example). The files are merged together and compressed into a Zip file. More information on the software required for using DINOShop can be found under Software requirements page and in the Help pages.

Public and non-public data
All data disseminated by DINOShop are public, but TNO-NITG manages more than just public data. These non-public data are under embargo, but this embargo can be lifted under certain circumstances. You can find more information about this on the Pricelist and the Explanation of rates pages.

Wishes, what happens to them?

DINO enables you to express your wishes via wants@dinoshop.nl. DINO will check whether your wish falls within the public task of DINO.
You will be informed as soon as possible of the outcome. Your wish is likely to take a few weeks to a few months to be realised. If your wish falls outside the scope of DINO, then the DINO User Council will have to consider it and thus the realisation may take a significantly longer time, up to eight months.

The reason for this is that the DINO User Council meets just twice a year to discuss and determine the wishes. In the worst case scenario you may have informed us of your wish just after the User Council has met. We will inform you of the outcome following a meeting of the User Council and then we will deal with the wish as recognised by the User Council.

Complaints, what happens to them?

If you have a complaint against DINOShop, then you can process this on complaints@dinoloket.nl. Whether this concerns the response times, the information, the data or the service level, DINO is keen to take your complaint on board and deal with it according to a set procedure. This means that you will receive and email from us within two days informing you of when your complaint is expected to be resolved. DINO tries to deal with complaints within four weeks

The only reason why a complaint may not be deal within this way is that your complaint is considered by DINO as a wish, in which case a normally much longer procedure is involved. We will inform you within a day if this is the case.
