Statement: This product was prepared using the sediment data listed, converted and integrated in the Shom Sediment Database (BDSS). The solution provides a summary of data from the surveys completed in various eras using a range of systems: lead plummet with tallow acquired by the hydrography service (1820 - 1950); particle size analysis of sediment samples obtained by dredging, using a container, coring and bore holes (since 1890); MBES (MultiBeam EchoSounder) acoustic imaging and side sonar (since 1985); classification of seabeds by processing the acoustic signal from the single beam echosounder (since 1992); seismic reflection (since 1975); morphological analysis based on bathymetric data (since 1820). The surveys were carried out by Shom, BRGM (French Geological Survey), IFREMER, the universities of Lille 1, Rouen, Caen, Brest, La Rochelle, Bordeaux I and Corte, IntechMer, the Biological Station of Roscoff, the Conseil Général (Departmental Council) of Charente-Maritime, the Departmental Division of Equipment of Charente-Maritime, the Environment Office of Corsica, and the Independent ports of Bordeaux and Marseille. Shom oversaw the compilation of works.
