Dataset Direct Download Service (WFS): Plan to prevent natural risks of terrain movement —

Geospatial hazard zones for the municipality of Fauroux in the Tarn-et-Garonne department, France, representing areas exposed to terrain movement risks. The data was produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) as part of a Risk Prevention Plan (PPR) study and was last updated in July 2021. Hazard levels are determined by assessing the probability and intensity of dangerous phenomena, with zones including areas behind protective structures.

Use Cases

• Land-use planning and zoning based on mapped hazard levels for terrain movement.
• Risk assessment for property and infrastructure development based on hazard probability and intensity.
• Integrating hazard zones into multi-risk prevention plans (PPRNs) for regulatory compliance.

Strengths

• Data is produced by a recognized geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
• Hazard zoning is based on a documented study of probability and intensity of phenomena.
• Includes areas behind protective structures, accounting for potential structural failure.

Limitations

• Last updated 2021-07-22 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file format are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
