Haute-Savoie's Dingy-Saint-Clair Natural Hazard Prevention Plan (PPRN) contains regulatory zoning, hazard intensity maps, and identified issues for major natural risks. The plan was approved on 29/11/1999 and follows the COVADIS data standard for storing geographical risk prevention data. The Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) is the listed organization for this dataset.
Use Cases

- Identifying and visualizing assets at risk based on the 'issues' mapping component.
- Standardizing the storage and exchange of geographical PPR data across ministries using the COVADIS standard.
Strengths
- Plan was officially approved on a specific date: 29/11/1999.
- Follows the COVADIS standard, which suggests a structured format for interoperability.
