Géorisques API (French natural and technological risk data)

Verdict
An official French hazard-data API for risk screening, alongside hubeau-water-data-apis. Licence: etalab-2.0: the Géorisques terms of use (CGU) say "Ainsi, les données publiques délivrées par le Service le sont sous Licence Ouverte V 2.0." and define the service: "Le « Service » se réfère indistinctement à l’application web et à l’interface de programmation applicative (API)." [So public data delivered by the Service are under Licence Ouverte V 2.0; the Service means both the web application and the API. Signal Lab translation.] The CGU and legal notice, read with plain curl, contain no ban on automated access. Rate limits: Not stated. Signal Lab links only.
