PPR and PSS: Flood Risk Regulation Zones for Vittonville, France

Vittonville, France, is covered by this dataset of regulated flood zones, created by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières. The data includes Submersible Surface Planes (PSS) and Risk Prevention Plans (PPR), which map hazard levels and enforce land-use restrictions. It was last updated on April 5, 2019.

Use Cases

• Mapping flood hazard zones for land-use planning based on the described PSS and PPR regulatory zoning.
• Identifying areas where construction is prohibited or prescribed based on the described 'red' and 'blue' zone classifications.
• Assessing regulatory requirements for development projects in floodplains based on the described utility easement and declaration process.

Strengths

• Legal enforceability is explicitly described, stemming from the Barnier Law of 1995.
• Distinguishes between two regulatory document types (PSS and PPR) with defined legal and technical differences.
• Provides a clear hazard classification system with three zone types ('red', 'blue', and others).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
