Saint-Vaast La Hougue Coastal Risk Prevention Plan (PPR) Geospatial Data

Saint-Vaast La Hougue, France, is covered by this dataset, which contains geographical data from a state-mandated Risk Prevention Plan (PPR). The data standard, established by COVADIS, aims for homogeneous storage of regulatory maps, hazard documents, and issue maps related to major risks. The dataset was published by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and last updated in April 2019.

Use Cases

• Delineating regulated zones for construction based on the regulatory mapping described.
• Modeling coastal hazard intensity levels using the referenced hazard documents.
• Identifying assets and infrastructure at risk based on the maps of issues.
• Standardizing PPR data exchange between government ministries responsible for agriculture and ecology.

Strengths

• Based on a standardized national data specification (COVADIS) for risk prevention plans.
• Covers multiple hazard categories, including eight natural and four technological risks as defined in the standard.
• Explicitly contains three categories of geospatial information: regulatory zoning, hazard mapping, and issue mapping.

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-04-04 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.
