The COVADIS Risk Prevention Plans (RPP) data standard provides specifications for storing geographical data from French risk prevention plans. It includes regulatory mapping, hazard intensity levels, and identified issues, as defined by the BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES. The dataset was last updated on 2019-04-04.
Use Cases
- Mapping regulated land-use zones based on the regulatory mapping component.
- Analyzing hazard exposure levels using the hazard intensity maps.
- Identifying assets and infrastructure at risk based on the documented issues.
Strengths
- Based on a formal national data standard (COVADIS RPP).
- Contains three defined categories of information: regulatory mapping, hazards, and issues.
- Managed by a recognized geological and mining research organization.
Limitations
- Last updated 2019-04-04; freshness should be verified.
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
