PPR LEE (64DDTM19970010): Flood Hazard Zones for the Lée River, Pyrénées-Atlantiques

Hazard zones for the Lée River Flood Prevention Plan (PPR) in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department of France, last updated on 2019-03-26. The dataset represents areas exposed to one or more hazards, as defined by the approved regulatory zoning map used for risk analysis. It was standardized by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) from the digital data used in the PPR's development.

Use Cases

• Mapping flood risk exposure for land-use planning based on the described hazard zoning.
• Analyzing the spatial distribution of hazard intensity levels referenced in the description.
• Integrating regulatory hazard zones into environmental impact assessments for construction projects.
• Studying the methodology for multi-hazard risk synthesis described for the PPR.

Strengths

• Data is based on an approved regulatory Flood Prevention Plan (PPR), suggesting an official source.
• Hazard zoning considers both the probability and intensity of dangerous phenomena as described.
• Includes areas behind protective structures, accounting for potential failure scenarios.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Last updated 2019-03-26 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
