BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES produced this dataset of flood protection works in the IRR right-of-way for reporting under European Flood Directive 2007/60/EC. The dataset is used to produce flood surface and flood risk maps representing flood hazards and exposed issues on an appropriate scale. It was last updated on 2019-03-29.
Use Cases
- Creating flood surface maps based on the reported flood protection works.
- Developing flood risk management plans (PGRIs) based on homogenized knowledge of flood exposure.
- Assessing territorial vulnerability for different flood probability levels (high, medium, low) using quantitative evidence from the dataset.
Strengths
- Dataset is produced for a specific legal reporting framework (EU Flood Directive 2007/60/EC).
- Aims to provide quantitative evidence for assessing territorial vulnerability across four flood probability levels.
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Last updated 2019-03-29 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
