Site 04 Missouri River Bathymetry Data at Structure 92-52-18.48(026) on Missouri/Kansas State Highway 92 at Leavenworth, Kansas, July 2011

These data are high-resolution bathymetry (riverbed elevation) in ASCII XYZ format, generated from the July 15, 2011, hydrographic and velocimetric survey of the Missouri River near structure 92-52-18.48(026) on Missouri/Kansas State Highway 92 at Leavenworth, Kansas, during summer flooding on the Missouri River. Hydrographic data were collected using a high-resolution multibeam echosounder mapping system (MBMS), which consists of a multibeam echosounder (MBES) and an inertial navigation system (INS) mounted on a marine survey vessel. Data were collected as the vessel traversed the river along planned survey lines distributed throughout the reach. Data collection software integrated and stored the depth data from the MBES and the horizontal and vertical position and attitude data of the vessel from the INS in real time. Data processing required computer software to extract bathymetry data from the raw data files and to summarize and map the information.
