The data was constructed from the hydrographic layer of the Topo BD and based on the field findings made by the DDT de la Marne and the French Biodiversity Agency in 2016 and 2017. The ‘TYPE_ECOUL’ field makes it possible to characterise the nature of the flow: The ‘TYPE_ECOUL’ field makes it possible to characterise the nature of the flow: Value carto_prog: rivers in progressive mapping Value Watercourse: watercourses Water Police and GAEC value Watercourse font of: watercourses only water policy non-stream value: ditches Undetermined value: undetermined watercourses Value Non-existent: non-existent flow The field ‘TYPE_ECOUL’ is transcribed in the field “TYP_ECOULE” to create the interactive map “http://carto.geo-ide.application.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/441/051_COURS_EAU_COND_vmars2017.map”.
