New Aquitaine: Sorting the Basque Coastal (overflow hazard) — Water Height Areas, Flood Directive

This dataset contains areas where a hazard of a certain type under a certain scenario causes a rise of water the height of which is within a fixed range of values, 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__ This JDD was created on the perimeter of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region during the heritage harmonisation project in July 2016. It is produced from data from the Aquitaine region. ATTENTION: this dataset is not complete on the Nouvelle-Aquitaine perimeter, it concerns the former Aquitaine region. __Partner organisations__ DREAL Nouvelle-Aquitaine/MiCAT/PIG, Contact taken from l'existing 59088 __Links annexes__ * [XML metadata view](http://ogc.geo-ide.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/csw/all-dataset?REQUEST=GetRecordById&SERVICE=CSW&VERSION=2.0.2&RESULTTYPE=results&elementSetName=full&TYPENAMES=gmd:MD_Metadata&OUTPUTSCHEMA=http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd&ID=fr-120066022-jdd-19cdc6a3-3eb3-40f2-937c-5e2971629028) [See this page on geo.data.gouv.fr](https://geo.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/db3dd878e66b0505ca4cb8e0d2f182c7bd3b323f)
