97. Data for channels Bathymetry data for channels mainly include points with (x,y,z) attributes. Data can be collected using –Traditional methods (surveying) –Depth sounder (using a boat) –LIDAR ( Light Detection and Ranging) –SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), etc.

98. Data analysis (Research of Venkatesh Merwade, CRWR) Start with points Create surface from points Centerline/Thalweg Cross-sections ProfileLines Extract all the necessary information How do we do this…….

99. Defining a Thalweg Input Step 1Step 3Step 4 Output User defines an arbitrary centerline over the measurement points Thalweg tool creates a surface using the measurement points Normals are drawn at each vertex of the centerline to locate deepest points All the deepest points replace the vertices of the old centerline Final result is a 3D polyline defining the thalweg Densify the initial centerline to get more points Old vertices New vertices Step 2

100. Measure in ArcGIS A PolylineMZ can store m and z at each vertex along with x and y coordinates. 0 64.0056 112.3213

101. Coordinate Transformation m is measure along the centerline r is distance across the river from the centerline Sinuous river becomes straight when transformed into (m,r) co-ordinates.

102. A “straightened” channel! x y m r Coordinates measured along and across the channel Northing and Easting Coordinates

103. Surface in transformed co-ordiantes Sinuous river Profile line and cross-sections Straightened river

104. Straightened channel as a 3D Fishnet

105. Transform the data back to x,y coordinates Original river in X,Y Profile lines and cross-sections in (x,y) created using FishNet in (m,r).

106. Profile Lines and Cross Sections in 3D Bird’s eye view!

107. Breaklines Profile lines are actually breaklines but they are created using a surface. Need a methodology to create breaklines before generating a surface (especially TIN) in order to handle false dams.

108. Measurement pointsSurface Thalweg/CenterlineCross-sections ProfileLines Fishnet GIS for River Channels Develop generic ways to create all the channel features from measurement points. This task is almost finished.

109. Cross-sections comparison Cross-section without breaklinesCross-section with breaklines Both cross-sections are created using a TIN.
