An R Package for Performing Fluvial Geomrphology Analysis
This package contains a wide range of functions for performing fluvial
geomorphic analysis. This R package is designed for use with the
FluvialGeomorph ArcGIS
toolbox. The
FluvialGeomorph ArcGIS toolbox contains an tools that can be used to
extract spatial data from high-resolution terrain data. The
FluvialGeomorph ArcGIS toolbox depends on functions in this package to
perform a wide range of fluvial geomorphic analysis:
- Calculate stream channel dimensions
- Calculate stream planform dimensions
- Produce reports of stream channel and planform dimensions
- Tools for choosing a bankfull elevation for ungaged streams
Funding for development and maintenance of FluvialGeomorph has been provided by the following US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) programs:
- Ecosystem Management and Restoration Research Program (EMRRP).
- Regional Sediment Management Program (RSM)
- Mississippi River Geomorphology and Potamology Program (MRG&P)
- Flood Risk Management Program (FRM)
- Engineering With Nature (EWN)
