Cartographie s├®dimentologique sous-marine au 1/500000, de la Manche au Nord du golfe de Gascogne (1979 et 1986)
This map is a representation of the seabed morphosedimentology, from the Southern North Sea to the Bay of Biscay, expressed on the scale 1:500000.
Sedimentology data were generated from two charts, using very similar morphosedimentary classifications.

Survey technique details: As a whole, this map results from the study of about 21500 samples, plus additional information deriving from the English publications mainly focused on the coastal zone, and from navigation charts, rock coring and seismic profiles necessary to determine the occurrence and the extension of the rock outcrops.
Several operations were necessary to get a single shape file (scale = 1:500000) : as classifications were different according to the charts, a re-classification process was necessary ; Management of overlapping areas : only finest and most recent data were kept.
