Site G06 Gasconade River Bathymetry at Structure A5215 on Missouri State Route D at Jerome, Missouri, June 2017

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2020-08-14T00:00:00Z
These data are high-resolution bathymetry (riverbed elevation) in ASCII XYZ format, generated from the June 8, 2017, hydrographic survey of the Gasconade River near structure A5215 on Missouri State Route D at Jerome, Missouri, to help identify possible effects from extreme flooding on May 1-2, 2017. Hydrographic data were collected using a high-resolution multibeam scanning echosounder system (MSES), which consists of a multibeam profile echosounder and high-precision pan-tilt base unit mounted on a tripod. Data were collected as the MSES unit rotated about various tripod setups distributed throughout the reach. Data collection software integrated and stored the range and angular measurements from the MSES. Data processing utilized computer software to process the raw data, align the various scans in reference to one another, approximately georectify the overall scanned area using recognizable features evident throughout the reach, and extract the bathymetry data in a useable format.
