International correspondences (34)
| Framework | Provision | Relation | Confidence | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ESRS E4 | SBM-3 | Narrow match | Indicative (55%) | Land use informs the sealing and land allocation of the material site. |
| ESRS E4 | E4-5 | Narrow match | Indicative (55%) | Land use provides an indicator of land allocation/conversion. |
| GRI 101 | 101-5 | Narrow match | Medium | Land use informs the size and characteristics of the impacted site, an element of the location required by 101-5. |
| TNFD | C1.0 | Close match | Medium | Land use and the Biotope Area Factor measure the project's spatial footprint and permeable/rehabilitated areas. |
| TNFD | C1.0 | Close match | Medium | Land use and the Biotope Area Factor measure the project's spatial footprint and permeable/rehabilitated areas. |
| TNFD | C1.0 | Close match | Medium | Land use and the Biotope Area Factor measure the project's spatial footprint and permeable/rehabilitated areas. |
| SBTN | S1a-R5 | Broad match | Medium | Effinature covers, at project level, several of the SBTN pressure categories (land use/sealing, water use, soil and water pollution, land use), but not the full screening exercise of the eight pressures or the marine/GHG realms. |
| SBTN | S1b-R10 | Broad match | Low | The characterisation of ecological continuities, land use and impact assessment locate at site level the activities and their impacts, which overlaps with the SBTN mapping of direct operations; SBTN remains more systematic (by pressure/realm). |
| SBTN | S1b-R14 | Broad match | Low | The initial state and soil quality, land use, water-resource management and pollution treatment directly assess at site level the same land (soil use/pollution) and freshwater (water use/pollution) pressures as SBTN, the difference being scale (site vs value chain). |
| Taxonomie UE | 7.1-SC-c | Close match | Medium | The CBS/CBSh, the definition of open ground and combating sealing minimise land take and maximise vegetated/permeable areas. |
| CDP | 10.3 (Bio) | Close match | Medium | Land use measures the change in land use, a major impact on the state of biodiversity. |
| GBF | Target 1 | Narrow match | Medium | These requirements impose planning of land use, ecological continuities and areas reserved for biodiversity at the project/district scale, an operational translation of the biodiversity-friendly spatial planning targeted by the goal. |
| NRL | Art. 8 | Close match | High | Open ground, combating soil sealing and heat islands, land use and open-ground reservoirs for street-alignment trees ensure the maintenance and development of urban green-space surfaces and tree cover. |
| SNB 2030 | SNB-M01 | Broad match | Medium | The analysis of land use documents the existing and future artificialisation of the plot. |
| Code urb. | R151-43 | Broad match | Medium | The regulatory prescriptions for soil treatment overlap with Effinature's land-use requirement, which is more operational. |
| Nomenclature ZAN | ZAN-ART-4 | Close match | Medium | Category 4 distinguishes artificialisation by use (residential/tertiary grassy surfaces): this is precisely what Effinature's land-use requirement (EFF-C-054) inventories and classes at project scale. Very close objects of analysis. |
| Nomenclature ZAN | ZAN-SEUIL | Related match | Low | The qualification thresholds (50 m² / 2,500 m² / 5 m) are rules for measuring land use that Effinature's inventory (EFF-C-054) carries out; a methodological link, without identity of requirement. |
| HQE | HQE-BD-C1.1 | Close match | Medium | The analysis of the plot's use/development corresponds to Effinature's land-use criterion. |
| ÉcoQuartier | Engagement 20 | Broad match | High | The ÉcoQuartier's soil preservation/restoration encompasses this Effinature requirement for preserving living soil (state, quality, land use, sealing, CBS/open ground). |
| IFC PS6 | PS6-§11 | Related match | Indicative (35%) | No direct equivalent: Effinature mainly targets already-anthropised sites; land use approaches it weakly as a characterisation of the state of the environment. |
| ESS6 | ESS6-§19-20 | Close match | Medium (70%) | Minimising biodiversity impacts in modified habitat (anthropised site of ecological value) corresponds to Effinature's measures for preserving existing plant and faunal heritage. |
| DGNB | ENV5-A | Related match | Low | Land occupation assessment overlaps land-use criterion. |
| Green Star | GSDAB-LUE-REUSE | Related match | Low | Reuse of previously developed land is conceptually related to Effinature's occupation du sol (land occupation) analysis. |
| Estidama | NS-1 | Close match | Medium | Optimisation of land use / reuse of already-developed land. |
| ACT Biodiv | 2.1 | Narrow match | Indicative (50%) | Land use informs sealing and land allocation (soil use) on the site. |
| BREEAM LE | LE01 | Close match | High (85%) | Effinature's land use characterises the prior use (sealed/brownfield) and steers the choice towards already-artificialised land, at the heart of LE01. |
| BREEAM Communities | LE 02 | Close match | Medium (65%) | Effinature's land use (prior use, artificialisation) corresponds to the land-use issue of LE02 (prioritising already-developed land). |
| LEED | ET Crédit : Site de haute priorité | Narrow match | Indicative (58%) | Upgraded from relatedMatch to narrowMatch: the Effinature 'Land use' requirement aims to limit the consumption of natural/virgin spaces, which genuinely responds to the intent of the High Priority Site credit (redeveloping brownfields/already-disturbed sites rather than virgin land). The LEED incentive is more specific (brownfields), hence narrowMatch. |
| SITES | Context P1.1 | Narrow match | Indicative (55%) | Limiting development on farmland joins Effinature's land-use analysis. |
| LEED-ND | SLL-P4 | Related match | Indicative (40%) | Land use/consumption; LEED avoids the artificialisation of farmland at district scale. |
| ARB IdF | IND-01 | Narrow match | Medium | The land-use requirement frames the project's siting and the limitation of land take. |
| ARB IdF | IND-02 | Narrow match | Medium | Land use and the site's ecological qualification determine the choice of siting on a low-stakes brownfield. |
| ARB IdF | IND-03 | Related match | Low | Land use at the project scale is linked to controlling densification, but the ARB indicator sits at the local-authority scale. |
| ARB IdF | IND-13 | Related match | Low | Land use determines the fragmentation or continuity of soils. |
