Summary

Real-time kinematic global navigation satellite system equipment was used to survey the edge of bank at selected locations on the Lake Sharpe shoreline near Lower Brule South Dakota at intervals from 2010–15. This work was completed by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe Environmental Protection Office.

Purpose

The purpose of this dataset is to track the position of the bank over time. The data can be used to document erosion and allow erosion rates to be estimated. Determination of erosion rates allows risk levels to be determined for infrastructure, and may help inform decisions about erosion countermeasures. The data are provided in shapefile format.
