• Assessing land-use compliance with state-mandated risk prevention regulations.
• Supporting municipal and regional planning decisions with standardized geospatial risk data.

Strengths

• Data conforms to the official COVADIS national standard for digital storage.
• Dataset is tied to a specific legal framework (Law of 22 July 1987).
• Provided by a recognized geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
