Summary
Presented here are bathymetric data collected at Otter Creek near Oregon, Ohio. Data were collected on September 26, 2023, and were located bewtween the Millard Avenue bridge and the mouth at Lake Erie. The survey was completed using an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) that was deployed from the side of a kayak. Data were georeferenced using a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) smart antenna with submeter accuracy. Data were collected along the thalweg and at cross sections spaced approximately every 300 feet. Data were processed first using WinRiver II (https://hydroacoustics.usgs.gov/movingboat/WinRiverII.shtml) and then using the bathymetry batch tool in the Velocity Mapping Toolbox (https://hydroacoustics.usgs.gov/movingboat/VMT/VMT.shtml).
