Introduction
General process description
Process step Sources
The dataset comes from the vulnerabilite_credit.png file of the Credit River archives folder that was georeferenced in ArcGIS. Georeferencing was approximate because the image did not have elements that could easily be georenferenced. A polygonal type dataset was manually created by outlining the vulnerability zones over the georeferenced image. The dataset was then converted to a raster using ArcGIS. The cells length was set to 50 m which almost corresponds to the map's resolution in (.png.) Pixels values correspond to the vulnerability level as follow: 1. Low; 2. Variable; 3. Mainly High.
