The EU EMODNET-Hydrography pilot project

The EU EMODNET-Hydrography pilot project aims to migrate fragmented marine data into continuous and publicly available data streams. This project involves 10 partners and aims to develop a high-end hydrography portal with powerful spatial database and access to background data. The project also assesses coverage by multibeam surveys and estimates the effort required to map deep and shallow waters.

  1. The EU EMODNET-Hydrographypilot project

  2. EMODNET-Hydrography objectives • EU (DG MARE) : service contracts for creating pilot components of EMODNET • EMODNET : To migrate fragmented and inaccessible marine data into interoperable, continuous and publicly available data streams for complete maritime basins • Pilot components : To define processes, best technology and approximate costs of a final EMODNET • Hydrography portal : one of the portals developed as part of the preparatory actions

  3. EMODNET-Hydrography : partnership • 10 partners : MARIS, ATLIS (NL), IFREMER, SHOM (FR), NERC/NOCS (UK), GSI (IE), IEO (ES) + OGS (IT), HCMR (GR), UNEP-GRID Arendal (NO, int. Organization) • 3 associated partners : ISMAR-CNR (IT) + IHPT (PT) + LNEG (PT)

  4. EMODNET-Hydrography : approach • To involve institutes, authorities and HO’s in providing hydrographic data sets for producing Digital Terrain Models with resolution of 0.25*0.25 minute • To use a metadata discovery service : SeaDataNet CDI metadata standard • To develop a high-end hydrographic portal : • Powerful spatial database for the DTMs • WMS services (OGC) • Access to the background data via the CDI • 2nd project : • Assessment of the total available coverage by multibeam surveys • Estimate of the total effort (time and money) required to map deep and shallow waters
