  • 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.

  • 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 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).

  • 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.

  • 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 update of the coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of the Gironde estuary - upstream with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was carried out in the third phase of the HOMONIM project. This DEM covers the upstream part of the Gironde estuary, from Pauillac to Bordeaux on the Garonne and to Libourne on the Dordogne. It is complementary to the DEM covering the downstream estuary (between Pauillac and the mouth of the Gironde). 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.

  • The update of the coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of the Gironde estuary - downstream with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was carried out in the third phase of the HOMONIM project. This DEM covers the downstream part of the Gironde estuary, from Pauillac to its mouth. It is complementary to the DEM covering the upstream estuary. 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 Mean Sea Level (MSL).
