Saint Christophe Dodinicourt's land use zoning data, created by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and last updated in March 2019. The dataset classifies municipal areas into four categories defined by the French Urban Planning Code: urban (U), to be urbanized (AU), agricultural (A), and natural/forest (N) zones. Each zone has specific regulations governing construction for purposes like housing, commerce, and industry.
Use Cases
- Mapping urban development boundaries based on the defined U and AU zones.
- Analyzing agricultural land protection policies based on the classification of A zones.
- Assessing environmental conservation areas based on the delineation of N zones and their sub-categories.
- Modeling construction feasibility based on the 'constructible' and 'inconstructible' designations within AU zones.
Strengths
- Dataset is based on the formal legal framework of the French Urban Planning Code (R.123-5 to 8).
- Provides a structured classification of land into four distinct regulatory zones with defined purposes.
- Includes sub-categorization within zones, such as 'constructible' and 'inconstructible' areas in AU zones.
