Gensac Natural Risk Prevention Plan: Regulatory Zoning for Eight Hazards

DDT65 Gensac Natural Risk Prevention Plan (NRPP) is a geospatial dataset containing the approved regulatory zoning for the municipality of Gensac. The dataset was produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) as part of a state-led procedure under French laws from 1987 and 1995, and it was approved on 27 February 2019. It maps areas subject to specific regulations for eight major natural hazards, including floods, earthquakes, and forest fires.

Use Cases

• Model exposure to multiple hazards such as floods and terrain movements for a specific area.
• Integrate official risk prevention boundaries into regional planning GIS systems.

Strengths

• Dataset is based on an official regulatory procedure approved on a specific date (27/02/2019).
• Explicitly covers eight defined natural hazards, providing a multi-hazard scope.
• Originates from a recognized geological research organization (Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières).

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Last updated 2019-11-26 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
