Coastal eco-cartographical studies consist of a series of maritime engineering and marine ecology studies, with their results perfectly structured in a GIS and associated databases for their correct use and exploitation in future projects and studies involving the Spanish coastline.
The basic issues undertaken by HIDTMA are:
- Topographical studies
- 3D bathymetric studies
- Analysis of tides
- Morphology of seabeds
- Coastal dynamics and classification of beaches
- Coastal ground utility plan
- Natural heritage
- Cultural heritage
- Marine biology studies
- Fisheries studies
- Water quality and sediments
- Ecological evaluation of the coastline
- GIS and associated databases
Outstanding project
