Metropolitan topobathymetric elevation model

The metropolitan topobathymetric elevation model is a representation of the surface of the coastal strip, both the emerged part (dry beach) and the submerged part, up to an approximate depth of between 15 and 20 meters. The depth is represented with a regular grid of 1 meter pixel size. The emerged part is measured with topography methods, the first meters of the submerged part are measured with a single-beam echosounder and the rest is measured with a multi-beam echosounder, which provides very detailed data of the seabed.

Domain consistency

Name of measure
Compliance with INSPIRE requirements (metadata)
Evaluation method description
The compliance of the metadata is evaluated using the "INSPIRE Reference Validator" web tool. The metadata is considered correct when the only errors reported are related with the main language of the metadata file. These errors are due to the fact that Catalan is not included in the list of official languages of the European Union.

Yes
Statement
The topobathymetric survey from which this model is calculated uses three different data capture techniques: topographic survey, bathymetric survey with single-beam echosounder and bathymetric survey with multi-beam echosounder. The characteristics of these techniques are detailed in the technical specifications.
