Pringy Natural Risk Prevention Plan (PPRN) — Approved 2009

The COVADIS data standard defines specifications for storing geographical data from Risk Prevention Plans (PPRs). These plans, established by French law, address eight natural hazards like floods and avalanches, plus four technological risks. The dataset for Pringy, Haute-Savoie, was approved on 29/01/2009 and last updated on the platform in 2019.

Use Cases

• Mapping regulated zones for development based on hazard levels described in the plan.
• Analyzing spatial overlap of multiple natural hazards like floods and terrain movements.
• Studying the evolution of risk prevention policy implementation over time.
• Integrating regulatory zoning data with other geographical datasets for environmental impact assessments.

Strengths

• Based on a standardized national data model (COVADIS) for consistency across plans.
• Explicitly covers 12 distinct natural and technological hazard categories.
• Approval date (29/01/2009) provides a clear regulatory reference point.
