Natural Risk Zoning: Surface Entities for Indre River PPRN on Castelroussine Agglomeration

A dataset from the French Geological Survey (BRGM) last updated in 2020 characterizes the real-world entities that represent potential natural risks. The origin of risk may correspond to features like rivers or geologically unstable areas. This data underpins the definition of risk pools and exposed areas for the Prevention Plan for Natural Risks (PPRN) on the Castelroussine agglomeration.

Use Cases

• Mapping flood hazard zones based on the location of the Indre River as a risk origin.
• Assessing land-use vulnerability by identifying geographical objects that cause natural risks.
• Supporting the creation of Prevention Plans for Natural Risks (PPRN) using defined risk pools and exposed areas.

Strengths

• Produced by the French Geological Survey (BRGM), a recognized geological institution.
• Data is structured to define risk pools and exposed areas for formal risk prevention plans (PPRN).

Limitations

• Last updated 2020-10-02 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.
