Multibeam echosounder surveys from the Kootenai River in northern Idaho, September 26-27, 2017

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Geospatial Program (NGP) and National Research Program (NRP) acquired hyperspectral image data from the Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, ID. The image data extended from the Kootenai Tribal FishHatchery downstream to the Copeland bridge. Image data acquisition occurred on September 27, 2017. A field team collected ground truthing data within the project area to calibrate and validate estimates of water depth derived from the hyperspectral image data. Multibeam echosounder (MBES) bathymetric data were collected at 6 sites within the area encompassed by the hyperspectral image to obtain high-resolution bathymetric data.
