PPRI 2013 Dordogne Basin: Linear Flood Risk Stakes for 15 Corrèze Municipalities

Linear stakes define flood hazard zones for 15 municipalities in Corrèze, France, based on the PPRI 2013 plan. The Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières produced this geospatial dataset, last updated in January 2022. Hazard modeling uses the strongest historical flood from 1960 for some rivers and calculated centennial floods for others.

Use Cases

• Map flood hazard zones based on modeled historical and centennial flood events.
• Analyze land-use restrictions for construction based on red, dark blue, and blue zone classifications.
• Support municipal planning decisions for the 15 listed communes in the Dordogne basin.

Strengths

• Covers 15 specific municipalities in Corrèze, France.
• Hazard zones are defined using a combination of historical (1960) and modeled (centennial) flood data.
• Regulatory purpose is clearly stated for preventing risk to people and property.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last updated 2022-01-14 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
