The scale <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> maps ranges from 1/460 000 to 1/320 (Table I). Data processing may include<br />
kriging (Francour and Marchadour, 1989; Pergent, 1990) and image processing (Pasqualini<br />
and Pergent-Martini, 1996). A set <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> standardized symbols for large scale maps <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>Mediterranean</str<strong>on</strong>g> benthic communities has been proposed by Meinesz et al., (1983).<br />
