Summary

A reach of the North Santiam River, Oregon, was used as a case study in an ongoing effort to develop and test image velocimetry algorithms for estimating surface flow velocities in river channels from remotely sensed data. Video was acquired from an unoccupied aircraft system, UAS, and used as input to the image velocimetry algorithms. Direct measurements of flow velocity were obtained using an acoustic Doppler current profiler, ADCP, and used to assess the accuracy of the image velocimetry algorithms. The UAS-based video was acquired from a DJI Matrice 210 quadcopter equipped with a Zenmuse X4S optical camera on July 25, 2022. The video is provided in its native form, with a frame rate of 30 Hertz and an *.mov file format. The video [...]

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to develop and test image velocimetry algorithms for estimating surface flow velocities in river channels from remotely sensed data. This reach of the North Santiam River, Oregon, was used as a case study, with the video acquired from an unoccupied aircraft system (UAS) used as input to the image velocimetry algorithms. The direct measurements of flow velocity collected with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) were used to assess the performance of the image velocimetry algorithms.
