The coastal topo- bathymetric DEM for the coasts of Boulogne-Sur-Mer with a resolution of 0.0001° (~ 10 m) was prepared as part of the TANDEM project (Programme Investissements d'Avenir, ANR-11-RSNR-00023-01). The DEM covers the entire Boulogne-sur-Mer port, from north of Wimereux to south of the Boulogne-sur-Mer urban sprawl. 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.

Bathymetric datasets, collected between 1990 and 2005, are digital data controlled and qualified. They are acquired with single-beam echosounders and the first generations of multi-beam echosounders.

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 Anguilla in the north to Saba in the south. The model ranges off-shore to a depth of 3275 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.

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.

The coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of Moorea with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was produced by the Shom for Météo-France (Inter-regional Direction in French Polynesia). This DEM covers the Moorea lagoons down to the 100 m isobath, in order to meet the need for modeling marine submersions in French Polynesia. It complements the bathymetric DEM of Tahiti and Moorea, with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m). The vertical reference for this product is the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT).

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.

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 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. The vertical reference for this product is the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT).

This data layer contains the current status of hydrographic knowledge expressed in terms of CATZOC (category of zone of confidence, cf. https://iho.int/uploads/user/pubs/standards/S-67/S-67%20Ed%201.0.0%20Mariners%20Guide%20to%20Accuracy%20of%20Depth%20Information%20in%20an%20ENC_EN.pdf), as well as the target defined by the national hydrography program.

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.
