Hydroacoustic (sonar) data were collected for the Mississippi, St. Croix, and Minnesota Rivers for the development of high-resolution bathymetry and sidescan imagery. Small areas containing priority mussel habitat had additional collection efforts to map water velocities and bottom composition. Combining these data in a GIS can provide key components to characterizing physical benthic habitat for native mussels in a riverine environment. These information needs were highly desired by the National Park Service to more accurately assess environmental factors that influence native mussel distribution. The collaborative effort was funded by the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR) Environment...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected hydroacoustic data of the St. Croix River adjacent to the Osceola (WI) boat ramp for hydrographic and benthic mapping prior to the reconstruction project implemented by the National Park Service (NPS). Backscatter is the acoustic reflectivity, which is the measure of energy obtained from the echo intensity, and can provide an indication about the nature of the river bottom and its physical character. Image analysis and classification of backscatter, with the combined datasets of bathymetry (and its derivatives) and ground truthing, can predict surficial substrate, or sediment type. For habitat analysis, these datasets were desired by the NPS to help inform and mitigate...

This dataset is a digital elevation model (DEM) of the bathymetry for six sites where known rock structures exist in the St. Croix River. The DEMs have a 10-cm resolution (Boom site is 0.5-m) to provide ultra-high-resolution elevations for investigating the use of hydroacoustic technologies for quantifying habitat for imperiled mussels Spectaclecase (Margaritifera monodonta) and Salamander (Simpsonaias ambigua) typically associated with rock structures (e.g., wing dams, revetment) in rivers. Bathymetry is essential for providing the depths and shapes of underwater terrain and it represents the three-dimensional features (or relief) of underwater terrain. Multibeam sonar data were collected using a Norbit integrated...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected hydroacoustic data of the St. Croix River adjacent to the Osceola (WI) boat ramp for hydrographic and benthic mapping prior to the reconstruction project implemented by the National Park Service (NPS). High-resolution bathymetry data was surveyed using a multibeam sonar. The depth and characteristics of the riverbed are important parameters of habitat for benthic (bottom-dwelling) organisms, and are a fundamental parameter for riverine ecosystems. A terrestrial lidar unit was used to collect shoreline elevation points. These datasets were highly desired by the NPS to help inform and mitigate potential impacts to mussels or benthic habitat.

This dataset is a digital surface of depth-averaged flow velocities for six sites where known rock structures exist in the St. Croix River. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) are used to measure how fast water is moving across an entire water column. The ADCP measures water currents with sound, and the resulting flow information will be used for investigating the use of hydroacoustic technologies for quantifying habitat for imperiled mussels Spectaclecase (Margaritifera monodonta) and Salamander (Simpsonaias ambigua) typically associated with rock structures (e.g., wing dams, revetment) in rivers. River current velocities were collected using a SonTek RiverSurveyor© M9 for all six sites. All hydroacoustic...

Using high-resolution sonar technologies with geographic information systems (GIS) and object based image analysis, benthic habitats of the Illinois River will be interpreted to support Asian carp research, monitoring and control. The entire study plan will consist of data collection and analysis of the Brandon, Dresden, Starved Rock, Marseilles, Peoria, La Grange and Alton reaches of the Illinois River. Reaches with larger aquatic areas (Peoria, La Grange and Alton), will have priority areas and backwaters collected and analyzed first.

A side scan image collected with Humminbird Helix 10 on November 14, 2019. Side scan sonar creates a picture or an image of the riverbed. To generate an image, side scanners measures the strength of how loud the return sonar pings are.

A slope raster generated from multibeam bathymetry and terrestrial lidar collected simultaneously on November 14, 2019. Slope represents the rate of change of elevation under the water column.
Remote sensing technologies, such as high-resolution sonars, can be used to collect more detailed information about the benthic and water column characteristics of macrohabitats in the Illinois River. These data are high-resolution bathymetry (river bottom elevation) in raster format that represent Starved Rock reach in the summer of 2017 and 2018. The hydrographic data were collected on the main channel and side channels where accessible.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected hydroacoustic data of the St. Croix River adjacent to the Osceola (WI) boat ramp for hydrographic and benthic mapping prior to the reconstruction project implemented by the National Park Service (NPS). The dataset is a collection of still-shot images to be used as ground-truth data for geologic substrate. The still-images (jpeg format) were captured from underwater video using an Aqua-Vu system. For statistical analysis, the videos were sampled at random point locations. A short video captured the surficial geologic sediment type at each location. This collection of images directly corresponds with the geospatial shapefile containing sample location coordinates, a general...

These data are digital hillshades of the bathymetry for five (of six) sites where known rock structures exist in the St. Croix River. Hillshades are shaded relief surfaces created by the illumination source angle and shadows, and are being used to investigate the use of hydroacoustic technologies for quantifying habitat for imperiled mussels Spectaclecase (Margaritifera monodonta) and Salamander (Simpsonaias ambigua) typically associated with rock structures (e.g., wing dams, revetment) in rivers. Hillshades are essential for visualizing details of underwater terrain and it represents a shaded relief surface of the topography. Multibeam sonar data were collected using a Norbit integrated wide band multibeam system...

This dataset is a digital surface model of the slope for six sites where known rock structures exist in the St. Croix River. Slope is the gradient, or rate of maximum change in elevation, and is derived from the DEM. Slope measures will be used for investigating the use of hydroacoustic technologies for quantifying habitat for imperiled mussels Spectaclecase (Margaritifera monodonta) and Salamander (Simpsonaias ambigua) typically associated with rock structures (e.g., wing dams, revetment) in rivers. Slope is a driver of energy below the water and influences biotic diversity, distribution, and the functional traits of those biota. Slope is expressed in degrees; it calculates the maximum rate of change in value from...

Bed elevation data exists as topobathy data for the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS) through the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Upper Mississippi River Restoration (UMRR) program. While those data meet some needs, water depth is often the desired information needed by researchers and resource managers. Water depth data (i.e., bathymetry) at specific discharge conditions can be derived by construction of a water surface elevation GIS data layer. Such a layer was developed using liner interpolation between gages and adjusting for lateral discontinuity. The selected discharge condition was a low water condition determined by the condition exceeded 75% of the time over a 40-yr period.
