EMODNET-Hydrography pilot project aims to migrate marine data, develop a high-end portal, and create Digital Terrain Models. The initiative involves partners, data providers, and associated partners for data gathering and product portal expansion. Through new activities, the project plans to gather more data sets, produce regional models, and estimate mapping efforts for additional maritime regions.

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
EMODNET-Hydrography : partnership • 7 partners : MARIS, ATLIS (NL), IFREMER, SHOM (FR), NERC/NOCS (UK), GSI (IE), IEO (ES) • 2 associated partners : ISMAR-CNR (IT), UNEP-GRID Arendal (NO, int. Organization) • 5 data providers : HO’s from Germany, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands and Belgium
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
