Hazard Zone Field Movement Map for Levie Commune, 2008 Study

The Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières provides a Web Map Service (WMS) dataset of hazard zones for land movements in the commune of Levie. The dataset is the result of a hazard mapping study conducted by the CETE in February 2008, which identifies areas exposed to ground movement risks to inform urban planning. Hazard levels are zoned based on the probability and intensity of dangerous phenomena, including areas considered to have no or insignificant hazard.

Use Cases

• Informing urban planning document orientation based on identified land movement hazards.
• Assessing risk levels for specific geographic points based on the probability and intensity of hazardous phenomena.
• Identifying areas protected by structures that are still considered subject to hazard for contingency planning.

Strengths

• Based on a dedicated hazard mapping study conducted by the CETE in February 2008.
• Includes a zoning system graduated according to hazard level, considering both probability and intensity.
• Explicitly includes areas considered to have 'no or insignificant hazard' where the hazard was studied and found nil.
