Masses d'eau plan d'eau - France Entière - Version État des Lieux 2019Lake water bodies dataset - Whole of France - 2019 State of Play version
This dataset lists lake water bodies, defined as distinct and significant parts of surface waters such as lakes or reservoirs, forming the elementary unit used for assessment under the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD). Each entity corresponds to the WISE Surface Water Body concept where the attribute 'specialisedZoneType' equals 'lakeWaterBody'. Data layers are disseminated in a format compliant with version 1.4 of the SANDRE Water Body Repository data dictionary. The dataset includes a noted erratum dated 10 February 2021, which reclassified water body FRKL001 as a heavily modified water body. It is published by the Office International de l'Eau / SANDRE, covering the whole of France, with reference to the 2019 state-of-play version.》A body of water body of water is a distinct and significant part of surface waters such as a lake, a reservoir, constituting the elementary division of aquatic environments intended to be the unit of assessment of the WFD. WFD reporting correspondence: This entity corresponds to the WISE Surface Water Body (SWB) concept where the attribute 'specialisedZoneType' = 'lakeWaterBody'. Layers shall be disseminated in a format compliant with the SANDRE Data Dictionary of the Water Body Repository, version 1.4. /\ Erratum of 10 February 2021: The nature of the water body FRKL001 has been modified to [3] Highly modified water body.
