PPRN Multi-Hazard Zoning for Land Movement and Flooding in Dijon Municipality

Regulatory zoning for the Municipality of Dijon, approved by prefectural decree on 7 December 2015. The layer synthesizes maps for land movement, flooding, and clay soil shrinkage-swelling risks. It was published by the French Geological Survey (BRGM) and last updated in March 2019.

Use Cases

• Assess property development suitability based on regulatory zoning for land movement and flooding.
• Model multi-hazard exposure by overlaying the synthesized zoning layers for different risk types.
• Inform municipal planning and insurance risk models using the approved 2015 regulatory boundaries.

Strengths

• Regulatory status is explicitly defined by a prefectural decree dated 7 December 2015.
• Synthesizes multiple hazard maps (land movement, flooding, clay soil behavior) into a single layer.
