The ZIF (defenceless zone) is defined as the minimum security zone necessary to guarantee the viability of self-protection of vulnerable elements in the context of an accident in the transport of dangerous goods. The extension of this zone is conditioned by the necessary response time and the intensity of the effects of foreseeable accidents. The distances of the ZIF for the scenarios of long-range toxic cloud, short-range toxic cloud, serious explosion, flammable cloud and puddle fire are established in "The Technical Instruction of the DGPC regarding the preparation of reports on the conditions minimum requirements that new urban developments must comply with to be located within the identified chemical risk zones due to the transport of dangerous goods by road and rail" (ITMMPP).

It indicates whether or not the municipality exceeds any of the thresholds established as a criterion to determine whether it is obliged or recommended to draw up the Municipal Action Plan for seismic emergencies. In order to establish the obligation to draw up the action manual for municipal seismic emergencies, there are two criteria: exceeding the intensity threshold in this case greater than or equal to VII, or for exceeding reference damage, in this case case more than 50 uninhabitable buildings or more than 10% of the total uninhabitable buildings in the municipality. Municipalities that appear in white mean that they do not exceed these thresholds.

It represents the areas of avalanche observation by the population, identified from a population survey.

Thematic coverage of the municipalities of Catalonia in which the municipality's obligation to strengthen the Basic Municipal Emergency Plan (PBEM) for the risk of an aeronautical emergency, the reason for this and the plan's current status is represented.

Polygons which define the range of sound corresponding to the alarms. In accordance with each type of alarm, the sound radius covered can be 800 or 400 metres away from the siren, or maybe unidirectional, covering a distance of 700 m with a 70º opening.

Thematic coverage of the municipalities of Catalonia in which the maximum danger level in relation to the transport of dangerous goods by rail is represented. The danger level takes into account, apart from the flow of dangerous goods, the type of substances transported. The average data on the transport of dangerous goods from the last four years has been used with the aim of obtaining more stable data over time and minimizing the current variations derived from the socioeconomic context of each specific year. The danger may come from a section of the railway network that crosses the municipal area or by a section that, without crossing the territory, is at a distance equal to or less than 500 meters from the municipal area.

It defines the maximum intervention zone and alert zone associated with an industrial establishment. If there are a group of industrial establishments located nearby in the territory, the maximum intervention and alert zone will be the total of these types of zones for all establishments in the event that the zones overlap. The intervention zone is the zone in which the consequences of accidents produce a level of damage that justifies the immediate application of protective measures. The alert zone is the zone in which the consequences of accidents cause effects that, although perceptible to the population, do not justify intervention, except for critical population groups. Likewise, in relation to resolution IRP/971/2010, of March 31, which publicizes the criteria for the preparation of reports referring to the control of the implementation of new vulnerable elements compatible with the management of civil protection risks, the maximum intervention zone coincides with the general confinement zone that corresponds to the strip with control of vulnerability and maximum permitted growth with the ultimate objective of allowing the population to be warned and the application of self-protection.

Thematic coverage of the municipalities of Catalonia in which the maximum danger level in relation to the transport of dangerous goods by road mode is represented. The danger level takes into account, apart from the flow of dangerous goods, the type of substances transported. The danger may come from a section of the road network that crosses the municipal area or by a section that, without crossing the territory, is at a distance equal to or less than 500 meters from the municipal area.

It represents the time of avenue or arrival of the floods from sectorizations of the fluvial courses.

It delimits the security strip with control of compatible vulnerable elements (not residential or public concurrence except compatible industrial uses and other exceptions) to ensure the capacity of application of self-protection measures by the population based on the proximity of the population to Focus of the emergency, response time and possible effects.
