Coastal Pedestrian Easement (EL9) Routes and Boundaries for France

A 2019 geospatial dataset from the French Geological Survey (BRGM) detailing the legal easement for pedestrian passage along the coastline. The data likely contains the location and characteristics of a three-meter wide public access strip, which may be modified by authorities to ensure continuity. It is served as a Web Map Service (WMS) for visualization and integration into mapping applications.

Use Cases

• Mapping public coastal access routes based on the described three-meter easement strip.
• Analyzing potential conflicts between public access and private property based on the easement's legal encumbrance.
• Planning coastal infrastructure to ensure pedestrian continuity, as mentioned in the description regarding obstacle avoidance.
• Visualizing areas where the easement route may have been exceptionally modified to encumber non-river properties.

Strengths

• Specific legal width defined: a three-meter wide strip for the easement.
• Provided by an authoritative geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
• Has a precise last update timestamp: 2019-12-06.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last updated 2019-12-06 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Row count and spatial extent are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
