Libercourt PPRN: Linear Risk Origins for Natural Hazard Prevention

The dataset describes the real-world entities that represent potential risks for the Libercourt area, as defined for the PPRN (Plan de Prévention des Risques Naturels). It originates from the French Geological and Mining Research Bureau (BRGM) and was last updated in April 2019. The data likely contains named entities, such as rivers or unstable geological areas, used to define risk-exposed zones.

Use Cases

• Mapping the location of natural hazard sources based on the described geographical objects.
• Defining risk-exposed areas (risk pools) based on the location of hazardous entities.
• Supporting land-use planning decisions by identifying linear risk origins like rivers.

Strengths

• Originates from the authoritative French Geological and Mining Research Bureau (BRGM).
• Explicitly linked to the formal PPRN (Plan de Prévention des Risques Naturels) regulatory framework.

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-04-01 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
