Flood Hazard Height Zones for Loir River at 1.20m Water Level in Chateaudun, France

Spatial data produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières for the GIS High Flood Risk Land Flood Directive (TRI) of the Loir River. The dataset maps areas where flood water heights fall within specific ranges under a defined scenario, supporting flood risk management plans required by European Directive 2007/60/EC. It was last updated on March 29, 2019.

Use Cases

• Producing flood surface maps based on defined water level scenarios.
• Creating flood risk maps that represent flood hazards at an appropriate scale.
• Assessing territorial vulnerability for high, medium, and low probability flooding levels.
• Supporting the development of Flood Risk Management Plans (WRMs) as required by EU law.

Strengths

• Data is produced for a specific legal reporting framework (European Flood Directive 2007/60/EC).
• Created by a named geological research organization (Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières).
• Designed to provide quantitative evidence for flood vulnerability assessment.

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-03-29 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
