The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is evaluating the placement of dredged material in the nearshore areas of Lake Michigan as a means to replenish sand at selected beaches. In order to elucidate the physical processes in the nearshore environment that transport and distribute sand to the beach, the USACE-Chicago District and the US Geological Survey (USGS) developed a plan for a beach replenishment study on Lake Michigan near Burns Harbor/Ogden Dunes, Indiana. In support of this effort, a backpack-mounted Trimble Ag132 RTK-dGPS was used for two surveys of beach topography (August 9, 2016, and October 11, 2016) in the study area.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is evaluating the placement of dredged material in the nearshore areas of Lake Michigan as a means to replenish sand at selected beaches. In order to elucidate the physical processes in the nearshore environment that transport and distribute sand to the beach, the USACE-Chicago District and the US Geological Survey (USGS) developed a plan for a beach nourishment study on Lake Michigan near Burns Harbor/Ogden Dunes, Indiana. In support of this effort, the USGS deployed an upward-profiling acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) to the Burns Harbor/Ogden Dunes study area to collect wave and current data. The ADCP was located at the following World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84)...

An investigation was completed by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs that found 1,132 transportation and utility assets in Indiana are vulnerable to fluvial erosion hazards due to close proximity to actively migrating streams. Locations of transportation assets (bridges, roadways, and railroad lines) and selected utility assets (high-capacity overhead power-transmission lines, underground pipelines, water treatment facilities, and in-channel dams) were determined using aerial imagery hosted by the Google Earth platform. Identified assets were aggregated by stream reach, county, and class. The contents of this data release include (1) a comma-delimited...

In order to elucidate the physical processes in the nearshore environment that transport and distribute sand to the beach, the USACE-Chicago District and the US Geological Survey (USGS) developed a plan for a beach nourishment study on Lake Michigan near Burns Harbor/Ogden Dunes, Indiana. In support of this effort, five bathymetric surveys with a boat-mounted Teledyne RDI 1200 kHz acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) were completed in the study area. ADCP data were collected using WinRiverII and exported for post-processing in The Velocity...
