Huisne PPRI: Linear Entities at the Origin of Flood Risk in Orne, France

Linear entity at the origin of the risk of a PPRN (Huisne PPRI) in the department of Orne is a dataset from the French Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM). It characterizes real-world entities, such as rivers or unstable geological areas, whose presence represents a potential flood risk used to define risk-exposed areas for the Risk Prevention Plan (PPR). The dataset was last updated on April 5, 2019.

Use Cases

• Mapping flood hazard sources based on the location of linear entities like rivers.
• Defining risk-exposed areas for land-use planning based on the described hazardous phenomena.
• Integrating risk origin data with other geospatial layers for comprehensive environmental risk analysis.

Strengths

• Dataset is produced by the authoritative French geological survey, the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM).
• Data is explicitly used to define risk pools and exposed areas for official Risk Prevention Plans (PPR).

Limitations

• Last updated 2019-04-05 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
