Pegase Application : French Britain

Year of design: 2011

Description:
The collaboration between the Loire-Brittany French Water Agency (AELB) and the PeGIRE laboratory of the Aquapôle (formerly CEME) for the application of Pegase to their bassin has started in 2000 by a 'pilot' application of the model to the Cher River watershed (15 000 km²).
following the positive assessment of the pilot application, AELB have asked to develop an application for their whole watershed. Considering the size of the watershed managed by the Agency, three separated applications have been created in 2005: One for Brittany (534 rivers, 8 321 km), one for Vendée coastal rivers (112 rivers, 2 184 km) and one for the Loire River basin (1 125 rivers, 27 750 km).
After this first application, the geographical databases have been regularly updated to consider all the waterbodies in the watershed. In 2011, they were:

Loire: 51 720 km of rivers (network of 5 560 rivers), for 118 000 km² watershed

Brittany: 14 170 km of rivers (network of 1 910 rivers), for 30 060 km² watershed

Vendée: 3 890 km of rivers (network of 501 rivers), for 8 660 km² watershed

In 2020, a fusion of the 3 domains has been realised, with a new digitisation of 500m spatial mesh and nodes every 200m for the whole watershed. A few rivers have been added.
The result is a network of 8495 rivers for a total length of 73 300 km in a watershed of 155 000 km² leading to nearly 327 000 Pegase nodes.

AELB use the Pegase model by themselves since 2005, first via a remote connection on aa unix server located at Aquapôle premices, then, since 2011, on their own PCs with the PegOpera version.
