Wernly, J.F. and Welk, R.J., 2022, Geospatial dataset of the bathymetry, hydrodynamics, water quality, infrastructure, and channel condition of the Old Erie Canal from DeWitt to its junction with the current Erie Canal in Verona, near Rome, New York, 2018-19: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9QRL294.

Summary

This child item dataset contains a shapefile of water velocity observations made by an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) during the 2018 survey, and includes measurements of water speed and direction along perpendicular transects of the Old Erie Canal.​ This data release contains spatial datasets of bathymetry, water velocity, water quality, and infrastructure of a 30.8 mile reach of the Old Erie Canal between the Town of DeWitt and its junction with the current Erie Canal of the New York State Canal System in Verona, near Rome, New York during 2018 and 2019.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to document the current hydrology and hydraulics of a 30.8 mile long section of the Old Erie Canal and to provide data to water resource managers and land use planners to improve the water quality and aesthetics of the canal.
