Data for year 2019, produced by departmental directorates of the territories in January 2020, describes the communal composition by SCOT (Territorial Coherence Scheme) and the status of procedures under development, revision, or approved. The vintage dataset is typically produced in March after a verification process for completeness and consistency. The dataset is associated with the SRU Law of 13/12/2000, which established SCOTs to replace master plans.
Use Cases
- Analyze the status of Territorial Coherence Scheme (SCOT) procedures based on their development, revision, or approval stages mentioned in the description.
- Map communal composition by SCOT to understand regional planning boundaries and governance structures.
- Study the impact of the SRU Law on urban development patterns based on the dataset's legal framework context.
- Assess urban development restrictions in peri-urban areas based on the 15 km radius rule described for agglomerations over 15,000 inhabitants.
Strengths
- Data is produced through a formal process with a verification step for completeness and consistency, as mentioned in the description.
- Dataset is associated with a specific legal framework (SRU Law of 13/12/2000), providing clear context for its purpose.
