The dataset 'Tri of the Strasbourg AGGLOMERATION' is a table of municipalities used to calculate the human stakes of numbers of inhabitants and jobs for each flood scenario. It was produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières for reporting under the European Floods Directive (2007/60/EC). The data, last updated on March 22, 2019, is used to produce flood surface and risk maps to assess territory vulnerability across high, medium, and low probability flood levels.
Use Cases
- Mapping human exposure to flood hazards based on municipal-level inhabitant and job counts.
- Quantifying territorial vulnerability for flood risk management plans as required by EU Directive 2007/60/EC.
- Producing flood surface and risk maps at an appropriate scale for the Strasbourg agglomeration.
- Contributing to the homogenization and objectification of flood exposure knowledge for regional planning.
Strengths
- Produced for a formal regulatory reporting framework under the European Floods Directive.
- Designed to provide quantitative evidence for assessing vulnerability across three defined flood probability levels.
- Spatial data set mapped for reporting purposes, suggesting a structured geographic component.
Limitations
- Last updated 2019-03-22 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count and file format are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
