Regional Bathy-morphology of the Bay of Biscay and the English Channel (2008 edition, resolution 500 and 1000 m)

This bathymetric model is the result of compiling data and numerical models prior to 2008 in the Bay of Biscay.

These datasets are available at a resolution of 500 m and 1000 m. Contours are also available for both digital terrain model (DTM).

Public access granted under certain conditions.

Statement

The terrain model includes six main sources of data or information.

Source1: Ifremer multibeam data, primarily the mapping result of the French EEZ in the Gulf of Biscay published in 2000 and the data derived from multibeam systems Seabeam, EM12D, and EM300 as well as data from the SHOM database;

Source2: Extraction from the SHOM database, probes sampled in 500m² cells (SHOM contract E97/2006) across the continental shelf English Channel / Atlantic;

Source3: Extractions from the database of the UK Hydrographic Service for the English Channel (contract Seazone Solutions Ltd - license number 11206.004);

Source4: Berthois Maps of the Bay of Biscay (1974 and 1983) digitized (2000) with a sampling interval of 500m;

Source5: Version before 2006 of the Gold of Biscay DTM with a grid pitch of 500m;

Source6: SRTM topographic model at 30 arc seconds.

Description

DTM1: The grid pitch of 500m is sampled at 1km grid intervals. Its geographical extension provides the following operational results:

- DTM2: DTM sampling of the version before 2006 (Source5) for depths between 5500m and 300m.

- DTM3: Extraction of the cantabrian margin area of the same DTM source S5 (unlimited depth).

Aggregation of the 2 DTMs (DTM2 and DTM3) to DTM1 to obtaining the product Bay of Biscay - English Channel, at 1km resolution.
