Updated habitat map resulting from an intergrated analysis of the acoustic and groundtruthsurvey data in 2014 (onboard the RV Cefas Endeavour). Sediment types at each groundtruthing station were used to inform a semi-automated process of map production using object-based image analysis (OBIA). The majority of the seabed was classified as 'A5.2 Subtidal sand', with patches of 'A5.1 Subtidal coarse sediment' and 'A5.4 Subtidal mixed sediments'.

Seabed habitat map performed by H├®misph├¿re Sub within the framework of CARTHAM ("cartographie des habitats marins") project coordinated by the French Biodiversity Agency (Agence fran├ºaise pour la biodiversit├®, AFB). Map confidence (rated by Ifremer, January 2021) : 82%. The area encompasses the Natura 2000 sites "FR2500079 - Chausey", "FR2500084 - R├®cifs et landes de la Hague", "FR2502018 - Banc et r├®cifs de Surtainville", "FR2502019 - Anse de Vauville" and "FR5300011 - Cap d'Erquy-Cap Fr├®hel"
