French abstract Après avoir présenté et situé le contexte géographique spécifique à la Polynésie française et ses besoins en résultats de la télédétection et de l'information géographique, on présente la stratégie mise en place en partenariat entre le Territoire de Polynésie Française et Ifremer. Celle-ci comprend quatre axes et cherche, en impliquant directement les utilisateurs finaux, à faire mieux connaître l'utilisation des données des outils de haute technologie que sont la télédétection spatiale et les Systèmes d'Information Géographiques. Plusieurs types de produits dérivés sont présentés et des plans d'extrapolation régionale sont offerts en conséquence.
Abstract Once the specific geographical context of French Polynesia and its needs about the use of results od Remote Sensing and Geographic Information have been presented and situated, the strategy used and developped both by the territory of French Polynesia and Ifremer in partnership is introduced. It comprises four parts and tries, by involving directly the end users, to make known the use of data of the high technology tools represneted bu Space Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems. Several types of the products are proposed and regional extrapolation plans are offered consequently.
