BDGEOS: The geophysical data base at SHOM (Service hydrographique et oceanographique de la Marine)

A Geophysical Data Base (BDGEOS) has been developed at EPSHOM to meet the military need for oceanic parameter mapping. Data are measurements from geophysical surveys or are interpreted and modelled values. The BDGEOS runs efficiently to product maps of geophysical parameters, to validate data and to model behaviours as gravimetric markers of seamount or magnetic tracks of wrecks. In the future, it would be integrated in the geographical information system of SHOM.<>
