TRI Loir Flood Hazard IsoClasses Height Zones for 1.9m Water Level in Vendome

BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES produced this geospatial dataset for flood risk mapping under the European Floods Directive. It contains IsoClasses Height Zones (ICZ) representing areas where a 1.9-meter water level rise would occur under a specific flood scenario in the Loir-et-Cher region of France. The dataset was last updated on March 28, 2019, and is used to create flood surface and risk maps for high, medium, and low probability events.

Use Cases

• Generate flood surface maps based on the defined IsoClasses Height Zones (ICZ).
• Assess territorial vulnerability for three levels of flood probability (high, medium, low) using the mapped hazard zones.
• Support the development of Flood Risk Management Plans (WRMs) as mandated by the European Floods Directive.
• Homogenize and objectify knowledge of flood exposure for the TRI Loir region.

Strengths

• Dataset is produced for official reporting under the European Floods Directive (2007/60/EC), suggesting a formal methodology.
• Specifically maps hazard zones for a defined water level scenario (1.9 meters).
• Created by a recognized geological and mining research organization (BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES).

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-03-28 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and spatial resolution are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
