Remote Boat Water Depth
Calibration - June 20 ~ 22
Current Opened Gates: Automatic for 3.0 ft water
depth
Water
depth was set 3.0 ft with automatic gate operation and 2.89 ft water depth was
shown in the PLC screen at 8:50 am.
Water depth survey with the
remote boat was conducted based on the phone conference discussion opened on
18-June.
Three different system
setting were tested: no GPS receiving; GPS receiving 1 per 2 seconds; and GPS
receiving 1 per 5 seconds.
All of the settings are
still showing intermittent GPS data lodging.
However, after the surveyed data filtering, the data were transferred
to reasonable values as
shown in Figures 1 and 2.
Dark blue lines show the
channel bed level front of the intake structure. Contour of the sediment submerged vanes were detected as shown
Figure 1 in green colored
circles. Gage height hydrograph along
the Rio Grande is posted.
