Permanent Equipment Base (BPE) Occitanie — INSEE

The permanent equipment base (EPB) is a statistical basis of [INSEE](https://www.insee.fr/). It lists a wide range of equipment and services, whether commercial or non-market, available to the public throughout France on 1 January of each year. Equipment is defined as a service rendered by an establishment. Thus, an institution can be counted several times in the base, if it provides multiple services. In 2020, it covers 188 different types of services and equipment, divided into seven main areas: services to individuals, shops, education, health and social services, transport and travel, sports-leisure-culture and tourism. The BPE is built from various administrative sources. It collects data on access points to services intended for the population, or equipment. It is distributed here in coordinates (x,y) on the territory of Occitania.
