New Aquitaine: Sorting of Agen — Flood-free zones (protected from natural flooding), Flood Directive

This dataset contains areas exempt from flooding (area protected from natural flooding by the existence of a set of dikes and sections), produced for reporting purposes for the European Floods Directive.The European Directive 2007/60/EC of 23 October 2007 on the assessment and management of risks of ' Flooding (OJEU L 288, 06-11-2007, p. 27) influences the flood prevention strategy in Europe. It requires the production of flood risk management plans aimed at reducing the negative consequences of flooding on human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity.The objectives and requirements for implementation are given by the Law of 12 July 2010 on the National Commitment for the Environment (LENE) and the Decree of 2 March 2011. Within this framework, the main objective of the mapping of floodable surfaces and risks of ' flooding for IRRs is to contribute, by homogenising and objecting knowledge of the {\#x27}; exposure of issues to floods, to the development of Flood Risk Management Plans (FRMPs).This dataset is used to produce flood maps and flood risk maps that represent flood hazards and issues at an appropriate scale, respectively. Their objective is to provide quantitative elements to assess the vulnerability of a territory more accurately for the three levels of flood probability (high, medium, low). __Origin__ Detailed genealogy information is provided in the report accompanying the maps and the GIS Flood Directive.
