  • 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

  • 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.

  • RasterMarine is a series of digital images taken from nautical charts, with no additions, legends or georeferencing information. The RasterMarine range is available at six sets of scales: - RasterMarine10 1:10,000 - RasterMarine25 1:25,000 - RasterMarine50 1:50,000 - RasterMarine100 1:100,000 - RasterMarine350 1:350,000 - RasterMarine1M 1:1,000,000. Unless exceptional circumstances apply, the RasterMarine range is updated on a weekly basis and the modified grid squares are re-published, replacing the previous versions. All corrections, publications, editions and suppressions with an effect on the reference nautical charts are taken into consideration. <br /> 15/01/2026 version <br />

  • "Regulation - Navigation" product contains 18 object classes, the acronyms used are those of IHO standard S-57 - International Hydrographic Organization – (https://iho.int/): - Anchorage area (ACHARE): an area in which vessels anchor or may anchor. - Anchor berth (ACHBRT): a designated area of water where a single vessel, sea plane, etc. may anchor. - Administration Area (Named) (ADMARE) - Cable area (CBLARE) - Coastguard station (CGUSTA) - Cargo transhipment area (CTSARE) - Distance mark (DISMAR): mark indicating the distance on canals or rivers. - Dumping ground (DMPGRD): sea area where dredged material or other potentially more harmful material e.g. explosives, chemical waste, is deliberately deposited. - Fairway (FAIRWY): part of a river, harbour etc. where the main navigable channel for vessels of larger size lies. It is also the usual course followed by vessels entering or leaving harbours and sometimes called "ship channel". - Ice area (over land or water) (ICEARE) - Local magnetic anomaly (LOCMAG): anomaly of the magnetic field of the earth, extending over a relatively small area, due to local magnetic influences. - Marine farm/culture (MARCUL) - Navigation line (NAVLNE): a line generally passing through two clearly defined charted landmarks, and along part of which a vessel can approach safely. - Pipeline area (PIPARE) - Recommended track (RECTRC): track of undefined width, recommended to all or only certain vessels. - Restricted area (RESARE): specified area designated by an appropriate authority within which navigation is restricted in accordance with certain specified conditions. - Sea-plane landing area (SPLARE) Detailed definitions of each of these object classes can be found in the S-57 standard (https://iho.int/en/standards-and-specifications). An online catalog is available at http://www.s-57.com/. Some of the symbols used for display on data.shom.fr portal have been adapted from icons from the OpenSeaMap open library (https://github.com/OpenNauticalChart/). For reasons of readability, not all the characteristics of the objects are systematically displayed. All available information can be consulted by querying this layer.

  • The product "Wrecks and obstructions" contains a description of wrecks and obstructions in the French Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) as 2D point objects. Objects of the product "Wrecks and obstructions" are divided into 2 classes: - Wrecks (WRECKS): all or part of a stranded or sunken ship or aircraft; - Obstructions (OBSTRN): object of an artificial nature other than a wreck (for example: container, lost anchor). This product does not concern floating or drifting objects (containers, debris, buoys out of position, ...) which position changes rapidly.

  • 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. This product is available with either the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical reference.

  • 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.

  • 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. This product is available with either the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical reference.
