The purpose of this survey was to provide annual measurements of the chutes and backwaters for the USACE to calculate yearly geomorphic change to understand chute and backwater evolution. This dataset is also used by the USACE for measuring the amount of shallow water habitat available for endangered species to comply with the "2000 Biological Opinion" and "2003 Amendment to the 2000 Biological Opinion" on the Missouri River as part of the their Habitat Assessment and Monitoring Program.
