  • 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°.

  • Bathymetric datasets, collected after 2005, are controlled and qualified. They are mainly acquired with multi-beam echosounders.

  • 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 the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT).

  • Litto3D is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of French coastal terrain. Litto3D digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.

  • The coastal topo- bathymetric DEM of a part of the Norman-Breton gulf with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was prepared as part of the PAPI Saint-Malo. It covers the Minquiers plateau in the north-west to the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel in the south-east. The DEM is designed to be implemented in the hydrodynamic models of the TANDEM project in order to estimate the coastal effects of tsunamis for the Atlantic and English Channel, where French nuclear power plants have been installed for about 30 years. This product is available with the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical datum.

  • The coastal topo-bathymetric DEM was produced using the bathymetric and topographic data acquired between 2012 and 2015 by Shom and the PASSION programme team. The 20 m coastal grid covers the Passion atoll – Clipperton and the local flanks of the atoll to a depth of 1500 m. 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°.

  • A bathymetric DEM for the coasts of Gulf of Lion – Côte d’Azur with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared as part of the HOMONIM project. It covers the entire Mediterranean metropolitan facade. The model ranges off-shore to a depth of 2800 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. This product is available with the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical datum.

  • The coastal topo- bathymetric DEM of the port of Saint-Malo and its surroundings with a resolution of 0.00005° (~ 5 m) was prepared as part of the PAPI Saint-Malo. It covers the city of Saint-Malo and its surroundings, from the tip of Décollé in the west to the tip of Varde in the east. The DEM is designed to be implemented in the hydrodynamic models of the TANDEM project in order to estimate the coastal effects of tsunamis for the Atlantic and English Channel, where French nuclear power plants have been installed for about 30 years. This product is available with the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical datum.

  • 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).
