Sangosse Risk Prevention Plans (PPRT): Graphic Data for Land Use Regulation

Risk Prevention Plans (PPR) are the key state instrument for monitoring development in areas exposed to major environmental risks, established under the French Act of 2 February 1995. The dataset contains graphic documents for the Sangosse PPRT, including regulatory zoning plans, hazard maps, and presentation notes, produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières. It was last updated on April 1, 2019.

Use Cases

• Mapping areas exposed to major environmental risks based on the regulatory zoning plans.
• Analyzing land-use restrictions and building requirements for development planning based on the plan regulations.
• Assessing hazard and vulnerability for specific municipalities based on the attached graphic documents.

Strengths

• Data is produced by a national geological research bureau (BRGM), suggesting authoritative sourcing.
• Includes multiple document types (zoning plans, regulations, notes) for context.
• Provides a geographic table for mapping PPR coverage across departments.

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-04-01 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
