This API provides the boundaries of regional nature reserves in France. These reserves share the same management characteristics as national nature reserves, except that they are created by the regional authorities (Régions) rather than the national government. They serve as a tool for regional biodiversity strategies and land-use planning. The dataset is published as part of an open-data platform and can be used for mapping, environmental analysis, and monitoring of protected natural areas at the regional level.Contours des réserves naturelles régionales. Les réserves naturelles régionales présentent les mêmes caractéristiques de gestion que les réserves naturelles nationales, à ceci près qu’elles sont créées par les Régions. Elles constituent aujourd’hui à la fois un vecteur des stratégies régionales e...
