BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES provides a 2018 zoning dataset for municipalities in Haut-Rhin, France, eligible for herd protection measures against predation. The data defines 'first circle' areas with observed attacks and 'second circle' areas with preventive action needs, as established by prefectural decree. The dataset was last updated on 2021-01-29 00:00:00.
Use Cases
- Mapping predation risk zones for domestic herds based on the defined 'first' and 'second' circles.
- Analyzing eligibility for financial aid for enhanced guarding and protective dogs based on the described risk areas.
- Studying the spatial implementation of the 2009 environmental protection decree concerning herd protection.
Strengths
- Based on a formal legal framework (amended decree of 19 June 2009).
- Defines specific, annually updated risk zones ('first circle' and 'second circle').
- Linked to a concrete rural development program measure (323 c1 of the hexagonal programme).
