New online service: the portal for official delimitation plans [ODG].

The Institut national de l'origine et de la qualité (INAO) has just rolled out a new online service: the portal to official delimitation plans. Accessible via the INAO website, this practical tool enables professionals and private individuals alike to consult directly maps showing the delimitation of the geographical area or parcel area of protected or controlled appellations of origin (AOP/AOC) and protected geographical indications (IGP). No need to go to the town hall!

The specifications for PDO and PGI products contain a chapter enabling the geographical origin of the product to be located. This delimitation is approved by the INAO and formalized by the approval of the specifications. It includes the contours of the geographical area, and for certain PDOs, notably wines, the delimitation of the parcels where the raw material is produced.

Geographical area plans were previously only available for consultation in the town halls of the areas concerned. From now on, they are also accessible and downloadable 7/7 days, 24/24 h on the new portal proposed by INAO.

The delimitation plans can be used for several purposes:

Operators can know where to produce PDO or PGI
Supervisory bodies can verify that a territory belongs to the delimitation in force
The public, administrations or engineering offices can use this information to draw up urban planning or plot transfer documents
