Abstract
    The soil database for Northern Belgium was used to map soil erodibility characteristics in this region. First, characteristics are calculated for the top layer of the soils where sheet and rill erosion occur. With regard to the available data, three methods are compared and evaluated. Three erodibility indices are calculated and mutual differences are outlined. Different cartographic representations are discussed and choropleth maps of the soil characteristics are elaborated. Finally, an overview is given of several regions in Northem Belgium each having different soil erodibility characteristics.
