N_ZONE_ALEA_PPRT_20130005_S_091: French Industrial Risk Prevention Plans (PPRT)

PPRTs are state-produced documents for controlling urbanization around high-risk industrial sites, known as SEVESO high-threshold facilities. The dataset defines areas of exposure to technological risks, considering risk nature, intensity, and preventive measures. It was published by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and last updated on 2019-04-04.

Use Cases

• Modeling industrial accident impact zones based on defined risk exposure areas.
• Informing land-use and zoning decisions around SEVESO high-threshold sites.
• Assessing public health and safety risks from potential technological accidents.
• Integrating risk prevention measures into regional development plans.

Strengths

• Focuses on high-risk SEVESO industrial sites, a critical area for public safety.
• Defines specific exposure areas based on risk nature, intensity, and preventive measures.
• Produced by a state geological and mining research bureau (BRGM).

Limitations

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