Flood protection works in the IRR right-of-way produced for reporting under European Directive 2007/60/EC. The dataset is used to produce flood surface maps and flood risk maps representing hazards and exposed issues for four probability levels. It was last updated by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières on March 29, 2019.
Use Cases
- Generate flood surface maps based on the described flood protection works.
- Create flood risk maps representing exposed issues based on the dataset's hazard and vulnerability data.
- Assess territorial vulnerability for high, medium, and low flood probability levels using the provided quantitative evidence.
- Support the homogenization and objectivation of flood exposure knowledge for regional planning.
- Contribute to the development of Flood Risk Management Plans (PGRIs) as required by the European Flood Directive.
Strengths
- Specifically produced for reporting under a defined European Directive (2007/60/EC), ensuring a regulatory purpose.
- Designed to produce maps at an appropriate scale for four distinct flood probability levels.
- Aims to provide quantitative evidence for vulnerability assessment, suggesting a structured approach.
