Flood Risk Prevention Plan (PRIP) Regulated Areas in Yvelines, France

Flood Risk Prevention Plan (PRIP) regulated areas in the Yvelines department of France, defined by a 1992 Prefectural Decree. The dataset, a Web Map Service (WMS) layer, was produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) and last updated in October 2020. It delineates areas of type A or B, subject to specific construction requirements under the former Article R111-3 of the Urban Planning Code.

Use Cases

• Map historical flood risk zones based on the 1992 decree boundaries mentioned in the description.
• Analyze land-use restrictions for construction based on the defined area types (A or B).
• Integrate with other geospatial layers to study the evolution of flood risk planning in the region.

Strengths

• Based on a specific legal document (Prefectural Decree of 2 November 1992).
• Delineates two distinct regulatory area types (A and B).
• Produced by a recognized geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
