Summary

This child item contains the raw acoustic Doppler velocity profiler (ADCP) and acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) measurements collected by U.S. Geological hydrographers at each site for the purpose of validating LSPIV results. In all field sites except for the Androscoggin River (ACR) and Agua Fria River (AFR) sites, the discharge measurements were collected as part of routine and standard U.S Geological streamflow gaging direct measurement workflows at established U.S. Geological Survey gaging locations. The discharge measurement at the Androscoggin River (ACR) site was collected in a reach of river not containing a U.S. Geological Survey stream gage, however it was collected using the standard gaging workflows. The discharge measurement [...]

Purpose

These data were collected as part of a series of field experiments to test the validity of using small unoccupied aircraft systems (sUAS) to collect stream surface velocity and discharge measurements. The data included here represent the raw sensor measurements (or post event indirect measurement) of stream discharge at each field site, which can be used to validate the results or Particle Image Velocimetry analysis.
