EMODnet Bathymetry - Bathymetric Contours version 2022

The EMODnet Bathymetric Contours are available as a WFS service from EMODnet Bathymetry. Service URL is: https://ows.emodnet-bathymetry.eu/wfs

The bathymetric contours of this layer are generated automatically based on the EMODnet DTM. New contour sets will be available for each consecutive update of the EMODnet DTM. The contours are generated by GGSgc BV using the proprietary GGSgc software.

Explanation

Statement

Contours are generalized to appear cartographically correct at a product scale of 1:500000. Small closed contours (both deeps and shallows) are removed. The contour set is therefore not hydrographically correct and CAN NOT BE USED FOR NAVIGATION.

The following contour values are included in the set: 50|100|200|500|1000|2000|5000|7000 . Depth units are defined positive downwards in meters.
