Lidar marine part 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. The product Moorea 2015 v.20171015 covers the whole of Moorea.

"Harbour Information" product contains 13 object classes, the acronyms used are those of IHO standard S-57 - International Hydrographic Organization – (https://iho.int/): - Berth (BERTHS): place in which a ship is moored at wharf - Isolated building localizing a harbour office (BUISGL) - Checkpoint (CHKPNT) - Crane (CRANES) - Floating dock (FLODOC): floating structure of one or more sections which can be partly submerged by controlled flooding to receive a vessel, then raised by pumping out the water so that the vessel's bottom can be exposed for maintenance. - Gridiron (GRIDRN): structure in the intertidal zone serving as a support for vessels at low tide to permit work on the exposed portion of the vessel's hull. - Harbour area (HRBARE) : administrative area of a port, including all docking and handling facilities, as well as short-term storage facilities. - Harbour facility (HRBFAC) - Hulk (HULKES) : hull of a wrecked or condemned ship, from which the fittings and superstructure have usually been removed, which is moored in a permanent position or grounded. - Oil barrier (OILBAR) - Pilot boarding place (PILBOP) - Rescue station (RSCSTA) - Small craft facility (SMCFAC) Detailed definitions of each of these object classes can be found in the S-57 standard (https://iho.int/en/standards-and-specifications). An online catalog is available at http://www.s-57.com/. Some of the symbols used for display on data.shom.fr portal have been adapted from icons from the OpenSeaMap open library (https://github.com/OpenNauticalChart/).

Bathymetric datasets are an extraction of surveys belonging to the Shom public database. For depth up to 50m, the vertical precision of soundings varies from 30cm to 1m and the horizontal precision varies from 1 to 20m. In deep ocean, the vertical precision is mainly around 1 or 2% of the bottom depth. It is sometimes more, it depends on the technology used. The data are referenced to ZH which is assimilated to LAT. Data are corrected for sound velocity variations. <br /> October 27 2025 version

<em>Surface current predictions computed from statistical values obtained from the IROISE 3D 2011 Telemac hydrodynamic model gridded with a regular 30m spatial resolution.</em><br /> <br /> This service offers a visualization of surface current predictions computed from statistical values obtained from a high resolution hydrodynamic simulation at mean Neap and Spring corresponding to a tide coefficient of respectively 45 and 95. Those statistics are then interpolated/extrapolated every 15 minutes (cubic spline), and for each tide coefficient from 20 to 120 (linear). The statistical currents, initially referenced to Brest high tide, are then referenced to the hour requested by the user using the tide prediction service <a href="http://maree.shom.fr" target="_blank">http://maree.shom.fr</a>. This service was built by Shom and funded by French CCI Métropolitaine Bretagne Ouest (<a href="https://www.bretagne-ouest.cci.bzh/" target="_blank">CCIMBO</a>) in the frame of the <a href="https://www.atlanticblueports.com" target="_blank">Atlantic Blue Port</a> project of <a href="http://www.atlanticarea.eu" target="_blank">Interreg Atlantic Area</a> european program.<br />

The high resolution Coastline corresponds to the Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT) with a tidal coefficient of 120 and in normal weather conditions (no sea breeze and mean atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa). The high resolution coastline is available in french subantarctic islands (984).

Information layer containing the SAR Zones (Search and Rescue). This layer contains a description of the French search and rescue (SAR) areas and the location of the associated Maritime Rescue Coordination Center (MRCC). it covers the areas of responsibility of France. The layer was produced by the Shom pursuant to the Circular Circular of the International Maritime Organization (IMO No. SAR.8 / Circ.4 of 1 December 2012).

French Ministry of Agriculture and Food / DRASSM - Shom<br /> The product "Limits related to fishery uses" contains the limits related to fishery uses as defined in the French or European legislations. Those limits are managed by the Directorate for Sea Fisheries and Aquaculture (DPMA) of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. <br /> Those limits are divided into three categories : <br /> - the inner limit of the coastal waters (6 nautical miles) ; <br /> - the 3-nautical-mile limit ; <br /> - the limit of fisheries for overseas territories (100 nautical miles).<br /><br /> The product "Limits related to fishery uses" is to use in addition to the digital product “Maritime Limits and Boundaries” of Shom (French: “Délimitations maritimes”) which represents the limits of the French maritime spaces of sovereignty or jurisdiction through the World.<br /> The product “Maritime Limits and Boundaries” (French: “Délimitations maritimes”) can be viewed on data.shom.fr (Maritime boundaries Category) and downloaded on the French national portal of maritime limits (https://maritimelimits.gouv.fr).
