Shoreline Erosion Hazard Areas in Côte-d’Or Department, France

Data from 2016 identifies areas of shoreline erosion in the Côte-d’Or Department. The dataset is derived from the Atlas Land Movements by CEREMA, using national geological databases, map interpretations, and municipal inventories. Since the source databases are continuously updated, the latest data version should be obtained directly from BRGM.

Use Cases

• Map coastal erosion risk zones based on identified shoreline erosion areas.
• Inform municipal land-use planning based on hazard inventory data.
• Update geological hazard databases by cross-referencing with the national BRGM BD MVT database.
• Study environmental change by analyzing erosion patterns derived from geological maps and SCAN25 imagery.

Strengths

• Derived from a formal 2016 departmental atlas project conducted by CEREMA.
• Integrates multiple authoritative sources, including national geological databases (BRGM BD MVT, BD Cavité) and municipal inventories.
• Spatial data is based on geological maps at 1:50,000 and SCAN25 1/25,000 scale.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Last updated 2019-03-29 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
