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

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.

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.

The product "BathyElli surfaces v2.1" contains the surface realisation of the ellipsoidal height at the reference date of 1 January 2000 of the characteristic tidal levels corresponding to : - Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT): "BathyElli v2.1 HAT / ell" ; - Mean Sea Levels (MSL): "BathyElli v2.1 MSL / ell"; - Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT): "BathyElli v2.1 LAT / ell"; - Chart Datum (CD) vertical sea level reference for each tidal zone: "BathyElli v2.1 HZ / ell".

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.

"Harbour Information" product contains 13 object classes, the acronyms used are those of IHO standard S-57 - International Hydrographic Organization – (https://iho.int/): - Berth (BERTHS): place in which a ship is moored at wharf - Isolated building localizing a harbour office (BUISGL) - Checkpoint (CHKPNT) - Crane (CRANES) - Floating dock (FLODOC): floating structure of one or more sections which can be partly submerged by controlled flooding to receive a vessel, then raised by pumping out the water so that the vessel's bottom can be exposed for maintenance. - Gridiron (GRIDRN): structure in the intertidal zone serving as a support for vessels at low tide to permit work on the exposed portion of the vessel's hull. - Harbour area (HRBARE) : administrative area of a port, including all docking and handling facilities, as well as short-term storage facilities. - Harbour facility (HRBFAC) - Hulk (HULKES) : hull of a wrecked or condemned ship, from which the fittings and superstructure have usually been removed, which is moored in a permanent position or grounded. - Oil barrier (OILBAR) - Pilot boarding place (PILBOP) - Rescue station (RSCSTA) - Small craft facility (SMCFAC) 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/).

These maps are prepared on the basis of vector-based mapping data (IHO S-57 format) including the detailed description of each object (beacons, wrecks, submarine cables, regulated zones, survey systems, etc.). These maps are the digital equivalent of printed nautical charts.

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 />
