Unoccupied Aerial System-mounted image velocimetry and Doppler velocity radar data for computation of river velocity and discharge collected at seven locations in Colorado in 2023: Ancillary Scripts
This child item contains Microsoft Windows batch and Python script files that reproduce the processing steps for specific files associated with image calibration, collating video metadata, and extracting velocity data from associated hydroacoustic discharge measurements. The following scripts are included:
<br>
<ul>
<li>create_calibration_image.bat</li>
<li>extract_metadata.bat</li>
<li>parse_qrev_map_files.py</li>
<li>parse_qrevms_files.py</li>
</ul>
See the FGDC metadata Data Quality Section Process Steps for details on these scripts.
<br>
Each field site is abbreviated in various files in this data release. File and folder names quickly identify which site a particular file or dataset represents. The following abbreviations are used:
<ul>
<li>ACS: Anthracite Creek at Somerset, Colorado, USA</li>
<li>BRA: Blue River below Dillon, Colorado, USA (collected in August 2023)</li>
<li>BRJ: Blue River below Dillon, Colorado, USA (collected in June 2023)</li>
<li>CRG: Colorado River below Glenwood Springs, Colorado, USA</li>
<li>CRR: Colorado R above Roaring Fork R at Glenwood Springs, Colorado, USA</li>
<li>ERW: Eagle River below Milk Creek near Wolcott, Colorado, USA</li>
<li>MCA: Maroon Creek near Aspen, Colorado, USA</li>
<li>RFG: Roaring Fork at Glenwood Springs, Colorado, USA</li>
</ul>
<strong>Software Requirements</strong>
To execute the scripts included in this child item, users will need to have the following software:
<ol>
