Aquitaine Flood Risk Issues: Polluting Installations in Bordeaux

A table of issues related to polluting installations under the IPPC Directive, produced for reporting under the European Flood Directive. The dataset is used to produce maps of exposed issues at an appropriate scale to support flood risk management plans. It was created by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and last updated in March 2019.

Use Cases

• Mapping flood exposure of industrial sites based on the IPPC Directive installations mentioned in the description
• Assessing environmental risks to human health and economic activity from flooding as outlined in the Flood Directive
• Contributing to the homogenization of flood exposure knowledge for regional risk management plans (WRMs)

Strengths

• Created by a geological and mining research bureau (BRGM), suggesting institutional authority.
• Explicitly linked to a specific European regulatory framework (Directive 2007/60/EC).
• Designed for a concrete application: producing maps for flood risk management plans.
