Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Large parts of the Belgian continental shelf (BCP) are affected by commercial activities. Close to the shore, major infrastructural works are also envisaged for the near future. All these activities constitute a serious threat for the underwater cultural heritage (UCH) but until recently solid regulation regarding UCH was (and largely still is) lacking in Belgium. The SeArch project tries to offer solutions to these challenges through the realisation of three objectives: (1) developing a reliable survey methodology based on remote sensing techniques that allows cost-effective evaluation of the archaeological potential of offshore, nearshore, and intertidal areas; (2) preparing correct implementation of the commitments imposed by international conventions and of comprehensive proposals for a transparent and sustainable management policy for UCH in Belgium; (3) offering guidance for the stakeholders from marine industry, government agencies, fisheries, and harbour authorities on how to implement the new methodology and management approach, and to increase the general awareness with regards to UCH. The 4-year SeArch project started in 2013 and involves partners from Ghent University, Flanders Heritage Agency, Deltares and Flanders Marine Institute. In this paper we discuss the main scientific challenges of the project and some first results. |
