The Netherlands• Flat low delta, precarious location,
best flood control system in the world.
Several Dutch companies are involved in
waterprojects. Conservation projects and land
reclamation throughout the world
• Lowest altitude: 6.74 meter below sea level
(near Rotterdam)
• Highest altitude: 323 meter (near Maastricht)
• Two main porst: airport Schiphol (the
fourth largest airport in Europe) and
seaport Rotterdam (the largest seaport in Europe)
