PROJECT DESCRIPTION - SEAPORTS HISTORY - COASTAL GEO-MORPHOLOGY - SEAPORT SYSTEMS - URBAN PLAINING - SEAPORT INFRA-STRUCTURES ENQUIRY GRID ON SEAPORT STUDIES 1. The geomorphologic aspects of each port 1.1. The geomorphologic constraints and potentialities of the coastal zone 2. The territorial implantation 2.1. Topographical setting 2.2. Conditioning factors of the coastal rim changes 3. Construction of port infrastructures 3.1. The building or the improving of quays, wharves, etc. 3.2. The building of breakwaters, groins, jetties, banks, dikes, ... 3.3. The building of sea marks (channel markers, stakes, lighthouses, sails, buoys, flags) 3.4. The improvement of accesses (harbour entrances and depths) 3.5. The improvement and the construction of defence and communication facilities (forts, bridges, channels, etc.) 3.6. The establishment of administrative and fiscal controls (authorities, legislation, technical staff, and specialized buildings) 3.7. The construction and specialization of facilities: warehouses, arsenals, shipyards. 4. Royal and local polices relating to ports 5. Assessment of use of technological innovation 5.1. The technical and cultural worlds (agents and institutions for scientific and technical development) 5.2. The technological options in building each port in relation to advances in hydraulic engineering 5.3. The route between the production of scientific knowledge (hydrology, topography, cartography) about the territory and the options of those responsible for the ports |
