Although Nantes was the primary residence of the 15th-century dukes of Brittany, Rennes became the provincial capital after th ...

The service, first developed by two public agencies (the Institut Géographique National, IGN and the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières, BRGM), was officially inaugurated on 23 June 2006 by president Jacques Chirac.
