Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. Topographic survey data were collected along planned lines from the river water surface to the top of the bank in the study area. Topographic survey data collection began on May 22 and concluded on June 10, 2014. A real-time kinematic (RTK) GNSS network provided real-time survey grade horizontal and vertical positioning.
