SRCE 2014 Alsace: Simplified National and Cross-Border Ecological Corridors

A geospatial layer produced at a 1:100,000 scale for the Regional Ecological Coherence Scheme (SRCE) 2014. It identifies and simplifies the routes of ecological corridors of national or cross-border importance in the Alsace region. The dataset was produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and was last updated in March 2019.

Use Cases

• Modeling landscape connectivity for wildlife based on the identified national and cross-border ecological corridors.
• Assessing the impact of infrastructure projects on ecological continuity using the simplified corridor routes.
• Planning regional conservation networks based on corridors common to multiple administrative regions.
• Analyzing ecological coherence at the scale of large river basins as described in the dataset's purpose.

Strengths

• Geographic scale is explicitly defined as 1:100,000.
• The dataset's purpose is clearly defined for regional ecological coherence planning.
• The producing organization, Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières, is named.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last updated 2019-03-22 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
