The bathymetric DEM for the coasts of New-Caledonia with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared in the framework of a Shom-IRD partnership as part of the TSUCAL project. The DEM covers the basin from New Caledonia in the west to the Vanuatu archipelago in the east. The DEM is designed to be used in hydrodynamic models in order to improve the pertinence of the Waves-Submersion monitoring programme.

"Traffic Separation Schemes" product contains a description of TSS in French maritime spaces. A TSS is a routeing measure aimed at the separation of opposing streams of traffic by appropriate means and notably by the establishment of traffic lanes. The measures taken aim at improving navigation safety in areas where navigation is threatened by the density of traffic associated with various natural difficulties. Several classes of objects constitute this product, the acronyms used are those of IHO standard S-57: - Traffic separation scheme lane part (TSSLPT): area of a traffic lane in which the direction of flow of traffic is uniform; - Traffic separation scheme boundary (TSSBND): outer limit of a traffic lane part or a traffic separation scheme roundabout; - Traffic separation line (TSELNE): common boundary between two traffic lanes, or between one traffic lane and one inshore traffic zone; - Traffic separation zone (TSEZNE): separation areas between two traffic lanes, or between one traffic lane and one inshore traffic zone, or to the central area of a roundabout; - Inshore traffic zone (ISTZNE): area between the landward boundary of a traffic separation scheme and the adjacent coast; - Precautionary area (PRCARE): area, within defined limits, where ships must navigate with particular caution, and within which the direction of traffic flow may be recommended; - Deep water route part (DWRTPT): sections within which the flow of traffic either follows one defined direction for one-way traffic, or follows one defined direction and its reciprocal for two-way traffic. A deep-water route is a route in a designated area within defined limits which has been accurately surveyed for clearance of sea bottom and submerged obstacles to a minimum indicated depth of water; - Two-way route part (TWRTPT): sections within which traffic flows in two directions along one bearing and its reciprocal. These route parts are generally two-way, but some may be restricted to one-way traffic flow; - Radio calling-in line (RDOCAL_lne) : positions at which vessels are required to report to a traffic control centre.

Litto3D® marine part is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of french coastal terrain. Surveys are carried out by airborne lidar bathymetry over the sea side and airborne lidar topography over the land side up to 400m inland. Litto3D® marine part digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.

Lidar marine product is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of french coastal terrain. Surveys are carried out by airborne lidar bathymetry over the sea side and airborne lidar topography over the land side up to 400m inland. This marine product is available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.

The product contains a description of submarine cables and pipelines brought to the attention of Shom on French areas of responsibility. These are 2D linear objects of the seabed that divide into two categories: • The submarine cables: these are cables placed on the seabed where electricity or information (telecommunication) flows. They represent the vast majority of objects (more than 90%); • Emissaries and submarine pipes: these are pipes that allow the discharge, sampling or circulation of fluids.

The product "Distribution of the submarine dunes of the French continental shelf" contains digital vector data provided as 2D linear objects representing the crest of submarine dunes digitized from bathymetric surveys conducted by the Shom. When several surveys have been carried out on the same area or dune, the product contains the information from all the surveys. However, the data displayed on data.shom.fr is limited to the information from the most recent survey.

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 coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of Moorea with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was produced by the Shom for Météo-France (Inter-regional Direction in French Polynesia). This DEM covers the Moorea lagoons down to the 100 m isobath, in order to meet the need for modeling marine submersions in French Polynesia. It complements the bathymetric DEM of Tahiti and Moorea, with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m). This product is available at different vertical references, either the lowest astronomical tide (LAT) or the mean sea level (MSL).
