  • Veere Is in the South Western Part of the Netherlands: Zeeland
    Veere Veere is in the south western part of the Netherlands: Zeeland. It is a province that consists of a number of islands (hence its name “sea land”) wherein a large portion of it is below sea level but ‘reclaimed’ over time from the sea by the locals as they formed man-made hills, dikes, and more. Which is called the Oosterscheldekering: the largest of the 13 Delta Works made by Netherlands. The name Veere means "ferry": Wolfert Van Borssele established a ferry and ferry house there in 1281. This ferry he called the "camper-veer" or "Ferry of Campu" which soon became known as "de Veer". That same year Wolfert built the castle Sandenburg on one of the dikes he had built. On 12 November 1282, Count Floris V. thereupon issued a charter by which Wolfert received the sovereignty to the land and castle with the ferry and ferry house. From that time on Wolfert was given the title of Lord Van der Veer. Veere received city rights in 1355. Veere has different inland marinas. A marina is a dock with moorings for small boats and yachts. Just beside the marina is The Grote Kerk (Big Church). The tower is somehow unfinished (dating back from 1348) as it was intended to be 3 times taller than it is now. Beside the church, there is a cistern (water reservoir) built in 1551 by the order of Maximilian of Bourgondy for the benefit of the Scottish wool merchants and this reservoir has a magnificent capacity of 2000 hectoliters (approx 45000 imp.

  • Investigating the Regional Employment Effects of Solo Self- Employed Formation Master Thesis
    INVESTIGATING THE REGIONAL EMPLOYMENT EFFECTS OF SOLO SELF- EMPLOYED FORMATION MASTER THESIS ECONOMIC GEOGRAPHY FACULTY OF SPATIAL SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF GRONINGEN M.D. Cornelissen SUPERVISOR: S. KOSTER Abstract The solo self-employed pool has increased amongst various European countries during the last two decades and became a considerable large source of income. Although recent empirical research suggests that solo self-employed entries may bring flexible services to incumbent firms, the exact economic impact of the solo self-employed group remains rather unclear. In this study, the overall contribution of the solo self-employed is followed over a period of ten years in which immediate and indirect effects are separated through an Almon polynomial distributed lag model. The results imply that solo self-employed stimulate the competition among incumbent firms rather than offer flexibility to the market. Furthermore, it was found that regional dissimilarities of the employment change induced by solo self-employed entrants could for a large part be clarified by respective differences of the indirect effects. Hence, the way solo self-employed interact with their regional environment plays a crucial role for explaining their influence on regional development. The results indicate that the indirect effects of solo self-employed entrants are more pronounced in agglomerations and the knowledge intensive sector. Keywords: Solo self-employed, regional development, regional employment, immediate and indirect effects, flexibility. 1. Introduction One of the most persistent economic trends in Europe is the increase of the solo self-employed group at the national workforce. This growth is seen in Greece, Romania, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and among many other European nations (Van Stel et al., 2014; CBS, 2020).

Dit werkdocument beschrijft de resultaten van het onderzoek naar actuele risi- co's voor verspreiding van verontreinigingen vanuit de liggende waterbodem van het Kanaal door Walcheren in Zeeland naar de omgeving via het opper- vlaktewater. Het vormt een onderdeel van het Nader Onderzoek Kanaal door Walcheren dat door het Advies- en Kenniscentrum Waterbodem (AKWA) in opdracht van Rijkswaterstaat directie Zeeland wordt uitgevoerd met als doel om de saneringsurgentie van de waterbodem in het kanaal te kunnen vaststel- len. Een aantal overwegingen liggen ten grondslag aan het opstarten van een onderzoek naar actuele risico’s voor verspreiding naar/via oppervlaktewater. Zo was onvoldoende duidelijk in hoeverre de waterbeweging in het kanaal aanleiding kan zijn voor het optreden van erosie en resuspensie, al dan niet als gevolg van scheepvaart. Daarnaast kon niet worden uitgesloten dat diffusieve nalevering van verontreiniging vanuit de liggende waterbodem van invloed is op de waterkwaliteit.

  • Sources for Scottish History in the Records of Veere1
    In Search of Scotland in a Zeelandic Town: sources for Scottish history in the records of Veere1 Peter Blom2 At the end of the seventeenth century, a remarkable legal battle took place. It all started because of a woman and almost escalated into the annulment of a trade contract the Scots and the community of Veere had signed one hundred and fifty years before. The protagonists were Isaac den Heldt, the mayor of Veere, and John Gordon, a merchant from Aberdeen. All manner of accusations were made in writing, and a lively correspondence ensued between the relevant parties in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Veere, and The Hague. As the following letter shows, documents could sometimes take a long time to reach their destination. On February 6th, the mayor of Veere wrote a letter to his attorney: Dear sir, please find enclosed a report from Scotland, and from Edinburgh and Aberdeen, as well as the Dutch translation thereof. The reason it has taken so long, is that ships carrying the letters were struck by storms and head-on winds which drove them to the north of Scotland where they were taken ashore; our documents of proof were 40 days old before they were delivered (…)3 This document can be found in a letter book dating from 1695 until 1701 which is housed in the archives of the ‘Orphan Chamber’ in the town of Veere. It is labelled ‘estate documents belonging to Isaac den Heldt’, which does not immediately tell you that this is where you should look if you are trying to gather information on postal traffic between the Netherlands and Scotland in the seventeenth century.

  • Comparing Municipalities: Who Is Your Partner in Crime?
    Universiteit Leiden ICT in Business Comparing Municipalities: Who is your partner in crime? Name: Thijs van der Velden Student-no: s1645676 Date: 17/08/2017 1st supervisor: Dr. Cor Veenman 2nd supervisor: Prof. Dr. Aske Plaat MASTER'S THESIS Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) Leiden University Niels Bohrweg 1 2333 CA Leiden The Netherlands Master's Thesis Comparing Municipalities: Who is your partner in crime? Supervisor: Author: Dr. Cor Veenman Thijs van der Velden 2nd Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Aske Plaat Abstract In the Netherlands, each municipality is strongly encouraged to write an Integral Safety Plan (ISP). An ISP is a document that contains problems, goals, and priorities related to safety. This research proposes a method to select an effective and relevant ISP for a municipality out of all available ISPs. It focused on the ISPs of the 390 municipalities in the Netherlands, and aimed to determine ways to assist/support a new written ISP by suggesting relevant ISPs to municipalities in order to learn effective methods from the suggested ISPs. This was done by scoring all currently existing ISP's to get the best performing plans, focusing on crime statistics. Two dimension-reduction techniques were applied to descriptive statistics of the municipalities, and the best performing technique (t-SNE) was used. The municipalities were then clustered with K-means in the t-SNE space to retrieve groups of similar municipalities. In addition, k-nearest neighbor algorithm was used to find the K most similar municipalities from a starting point. This research showed a solution to score ISPs and two solutions to find similar municipalities in order to suggest relevant ISPs.

  • Weidegebied Oude Veerseweg Wandelroute 14 Kilometer Startpunt
    WANDELROUTE Jaagpad Middelburg – weidegebied Oude Veerseweg Wandelroute 14 kilometer Startpunt: Cycle Hub, Stadsambachtsweg 6 4332 SE Middelburg www.cyclehub.nl Als de Cycle Hub gesloten is, kan gestart worden vanaf de naastgelegen parkeerplaats Ramsburg Horeca: Bij de Cycle Hub is eenvoudige horeca aanwezig. Alternatief: in de (binnen)stad Middelburg, ca. 1 – 1,5 km. lopen vanaf het startpunt. Of in de stad Veere (de route verlaten en later terug oppakken). Begaanbaarheid: De route gaat over een onverharde dijk en via de openbare weg. Vanwege een (vee)hekje is het niet toegankelijk met rolstoel of kinderwagen. Wandelroute 14 kilometer Routebeschrijving: Ga vanaf het startpunt linksaf de Kanaaldijk op. Volg de volgende knooppunten van het wandelnetwerk: 71 - 72 - 44 – 19 – 11 – 12 - 13 – 11 – 19 – 18 – 43 – 42 - 41. Vanaf hier volg je een stukje richting knooppunt 72, maar je blijft op de Oude Veerseweg (en slaat dus niet op een gegeven moment linksaf naar 72). Je passeert een gemaal, daar maakt de weg een scherpe bocht naar rechts. Na ca. 800 meter ga je de eerste weg links (doodlopende weg, Oude Veerseweg). Weer eerste weg links (nog steeds Oude Veerseweg), deze gaat over in een onverhard pad. Loop tot het zwarte hek. Passeer dit. Loop linksaf schuin naar boven de Kanaaldijk op. Bovenop de dijk ga je rechtsaf, terug naar het startpunt. 1 Kanaaldijk Je wandelt hier over ‘het jaagpad’, een onverhard pad tussen de historische steden Middelburg en Veere. Het dateert uit 1817. Het graven ervan gebeurde helemaal met de hand. Duizenden mannen spitten de zware klei in kruiwagens en duwden die vervolgens over planken naar boven.
