  • The DTM is a compilation of multibeam echosounder surveys acquired in 2013. The resolution is 1/64 arc-minutes (~30m). Surveys are located on the Capbreton Submarine Canyon (France) with depths from -4.7m to -344.9m. Depths are referenced to the Lowest Astronomical Tide and the coordinates are expressed into the WGS84 reference frame. The surveys which compose the DTM are S201306500-09 and S201306500-11. Data and metadata associated to these surveys are available on the website http://diffusion.shom.fr/pro/lots-bathy.html. The DTM is not to be used for navigation.

  • The regional bathymetric Atlantic – Channel – North-Sea DTM has a resolution of 0.001° (~111m). Its geographic coverage includes the Bay of Biscay, the English Channel and a part of the North Sea. The DTM extends from the coast to the continental slope (about of 4800m deep). This DTM is produced in the framework of the HOMONIM project which aims at improving operational forecast capabilities for the national coastal flood warning system. This DTM is offered openly on the Shom diffusion website (http://diffusion.shom.fr/produits/bathymetrie/mnt-facade-atl-homonim.html). http://dx.doi.org/10.17183/MNT_ATL100m_HOMONIM_WGS84

  • This product includes all Shom digital files for tidal currents on mainland French coasts (Channel and Atlantic coasts) in mesh format. These digital files indicate surface tidal current components, hour by hour and for two typical tidal coefficients (45 and 95) and maximum current speeds for a mean spring tide. Brest is taken as the reference port for viewing purposes. The current points included in these files correspond to the arrows shown on current atlases.

  • The bathymetric DEM of the atlantic facade with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared as part of the HOMONIM project. It encompasses part of the North Sea, the Channel and the Bay of Biscay. Offshore, this DTM extends beyond the slope to approximately 4800 m depth. 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.

  • Information layer containing the SAR Zones (Search and Rescue). This layer contains a description of the French search and rescue (SAR) areas and the location of the associated Maritime Rescue Coordination Center (MRCC). it covers the areas of responsibility of France. The layer was produced by the Shom pursuant to the Circular Circular of the International Maritime Organization (IMO No. SAR.8 / Circ.4 of 1 December 2012).

  • In accordance with decree no. n°2019-165 of 5 March 2019, Shom measures and updates maritime altimetric datums or hydrographic datums for French ports in mainland France and overseas administrative departments and authorities. These datums are provided to allow for standardisation based on legal altimetric datum systems (e.g. IGN69). Shom also disseminates typical tide figures for each port (lowest tide, mean tide, etc.). The Marine Altimetric Reference Value (RAM) product is available for ports in mainland France and for overseas territories with a tidal observatory.

  • This product includes the boundaries of tidal zones for French Channel, Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts in shapefile format. Information on the characteristics of tidal zones is available as part of the "Maritime Altimetric Reference Values" product.

  • Non-georeferenced digital images in JPEG2000 format from former hydrographical survey fair sheets obtained from Shom's historical archives.

  • The “French sub-rectangles of the ICES fishery statistical rectangles” product contains 2D areas vector objects representing a sub-rectangle division of ICES statistical rectangles. Each product polygon belongs to an unique ICES rectangle. This subdivision enables distinction between overlapping areas in two or more EEZs, areas of functional interest and areas of regulatory interest.

  • Bathymetric datasets are an extraction of surveys belonging to the Shom public database. For depth up to 50m, the vertical precision of soundings varies from 30cm to 1m and the horizontal precision varies from 1 to 20m. In deep ocean, the vertical precision is mainly around 1 or 2% of the bottom depth. It is sometimes more, it depends on the technology used. The data are referenced to ZH which is assimilated to LAT. Data are corrected for sound velocity variations.
