R111-3: Vaujany Risk Prevention Plan (PPR) Spatial Data from 1974

Risk Prevention Plans (RPPs) are the French State's key instrument for controlling development in areas at risk. This spatial dataset, R111-3 from Vaujany, was approved on 24/07/1974 and is provided by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM). It was last updated on the platform on 2020-12-29.

Use Cases

• Mapping areas prohibited for construction based on the 'red zones' defined in the plan.
• Assessing development requirements for projects in 'blue zones' subject to specific hazard-related rules.
• Analyzing the spatial scope of exposure to risks as defined by the RPP regulations.
• Integrating historical land-use restrictions into modern planning and risk assessment models.

Strengths

• Dataset is tied to a specific, legally approved plan (R111-3 from Vaujany approved 24/07/1974).
• Originates from an authoritative geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
• Has a defined last update timestamp (2020-12-29).

Limitations

• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The description notes data are informative, with only paper documents from the prefecture being legally authentic.
