The bathymetric DEM was produced using the bathymetric and topographic data acquired between 2012 and 2015 by Shom and the PASSION programme team. The extent of the 100 m coastal grid covers an extended area around Passion Island – Clipperton, Mount Queiros, Mount Cermeno, and adjacent shallow waters. Passion island - Clipperton, in the eastern Pacific Ocean, is a remote uninhabited atoll over 5,000 km from Tahiti in French Polynesia and over 1,000 km from the Mexican coasts. Passion island is the highest point on the Clipperton ridge, and the only location above water level. This is the only coral atoll in the eastern Pacific in the northern hemisphere, at a longitude of W 109° and a latitude of N 10°.

The bathymetric DEM for the coasts of Guadeloupe and Martinique with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared as part of the HOMONIM project. The DEM covers some of the Lesser Antilles islands, from Montserrat in the north to Sainte-Lucie in the south. The model ranges off-shore to a depth of 5800 m. The DEM is designed to be used in hydrodynamic models in order to produce high-precision forecasts for coastal water levels and sea conditions and therefore improve the pertinence of the Waves-Submersion monitoring programme.

Bathymetric datasets, collected before 1970, are historical surveys acquired with leadlines (and single-beam echosounders after 1930-1940). Quality controls and qualification, conducted by the Shom, on these datasets are not exhaustive. Datasets may present significant uncertainties and errors may remain.

The bathymetric DEM for the coasts of New-Caledonia with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared in the framework of a Shom-IRD partnership as part of the TSUCAL project. The DEM covers the basin from New Caledonia in the west to the Vanuatu archipelago in the east. The DEM is designed to be used in hydrodynamic models in order to improve the pertinence of the Waves-Submersion monitoring programme.

Litto3D Marine Part is an intermediate product of the Litto3D product containing only marine data.Litto3D is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of French coastal terrain. A line separates sea and land data acquisition zones, and the associated survey readings obtained using bathymetric lidar technologies or multibeam echosounders for sea readings and airborne lidar topographical surveys for land readings, with 300 m overlap. Litto3D digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.

Litto3D provides 3D, continuous sea-land description of French coastal areas. Data is acquired by airborne topo-bathymetric LiDARs. Litto3D products come in 3D point clouds and digital terrain models formats. Litto3D Saint-Pierre-and-Miquelon product covers land area of the islands as well as bathymetry down to approx. 20m.

Litto3D provides 3D, continuous sea-land description of French coastal areas. Data is acquired by airborne topo-bathymetric LiDARs. Litto3D products come in 3D point clouds and digital terrain models formats. The product "Litto3D - Nouvelle-Aquitaine 2020-2022" covers the geographical area from the Charente-Maritime to the Spanish border. For the maritime part, the data produced by Shom extend offshore down to signal extinction, approximatively 20 depth when environmental conditions are optimal. On land, the data are truncated at a limit that ensures the product retain its coastal character.

The coastal topobathymetric DEM of Ré Island's surroundings, with a resolution of 0.00005° (~5 meters), was created by Shom as part of the HOMONIM-3 project. It covers the coast of the municipalities of Ars-en-Ré and Saint-Clément-des-Baleines, extending offshore to a depth of about 20 meters, to the west of the Phare des Baleines lighthouse. This DEM is designed for use in hydrodynamic models to enhance the modeling of coastal processes, particularly forecasting submersion risk. The product complements the coastal topobathymetric DEM of the Pertuis-Charentais, with a resolution of 0.0002° (~20 meters), and the bathymetric DEM of the Atlantic coast, with a resolution of 0.001° (~100 meters). The vertical reference for this product is Mean Sea Level (MSL).

The update of the coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of the Pertuis charentais at a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was carried out in the third phase of the HOMONIM project. The DEM extends from the terrestrial domain to about 60 meters depth over all the pertuis (pertuis Breton, pertuis d’Antioche and pertuis of Maumusson). The DEM is intended to be implemented in hydrodynamic models in order to produce forecasts as accurate as possible of water heights and sea states at the coast to improve the relevance of the Wave-Submergence Vigilance. This product is available with either the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical reference.
