The U.S. Geological Survey is testing deployments of continuous Large-Scale particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) streamgaging stations in areas with flashy flow regimes to measure streamflow during flood events. Videos were collected for the purpose of LSPIV streamflow analysis at a stage-discharge streamgaging station in a small, flashy urban stream in Urbana, Illinois, USA (Boneyard Creek at Urbana, IL, 03337000) with an internet protocol (IP) camera. The IP camera is mounted on the bottom of a walkway bridge spanning the creek at the gaging location, and is aimed to view the water for optimal camera perspective at all flow stages. Videos of peak streamflow events with gage height above 12 feet (local gage datum) are included with this data release along with a table (comma separated values format) describing the video metadata and associated streamflow and stage instantaneous values for each video.
