Op verzoek van de provincie Noord-Brabant heeft het RIVM gegevens over de bodembiodiversiteit op kaarten weergegeven. De kaarten zullen aan de Bodemwijzer van de provincie worden toegevoegd. In dit instrument wordt kennis over de bodem verzameld en toegankelijk gemaakt om duurzaam bodemgebruik na te kunnen streven. Hiermee kan namelijk worden geïnventariseerd welke gevolgen nieuwe activiteiten kunnen hebben op de eigenschappen van de bodem, zoals het effect van de grondwaterstand op de aardkundige waarden.

Het RIVM heeft meegewerkt aan de ontwikkeling van een methode waarmee kan worden afgewogen welk bodembeheer en welke ruimtelijke inrichtingsplannen het meest bijdragen aan een 'duurzame' groene infrastructuur in een gebied. Deze zogeheten Triple-O aanpak biedt mogelijkheden om de voordelen die de mens heeft van een natuurlijk systeem (bodem, water en groen, oftewel ecosysteemdiensten) in te zetten bij bodembeheer en gebiedsontwikkeling. Triple-O staat voor Ontdekken, Overeenkomen en Ontwikkelen.
