BaRatin method
To provide operational solutions to the difficult problems of developing, calibrating, reviewing simple and complex rating curves and estimating their uncertainties, the Bayesian BaRatin method (Bayesian Rating curve, Le Coz et al., 2014; Horner et al., 2018) has been developed by INRAE since 2010. The development of methods for quantifying the uncertainties of hydrometric data …
Fudaa-LSPIV
Since the late 1990s, image sequence analysis velocimetry techniques (such as PIV – Particle Image Velocimetry) developed in the laboratory have been gradually applied to outdoor geophysical flows, particularly watercourses (Fujita et al. 1998; Hauet 2006). The movement of tracers (natural or added) visible on the surface of the flow is detected by autocorrelation of …
APRiM
APRiM (Automatic Processing for River Morphology) is a software that aims at providing useful topographic characteristics for hydraulics from LiDAR DTM and aerial images. The main goal is to achieve automatic identification of hydraulic and hydromorphologic elements such as water depth, width of the river bed, width of water channels, and the description of bars …
Solution NaCl software
Solution NaCl is a software program that calculates the instantaneous discharge of a watercourse when using the salt dilution “global” or “instantaneous” method. This gauging method consists of injecting a salt tracer solution into a watercourse and monitoring on a section downstream the temporal evolution of the conductivity, and thus indirectly of the salt concentration. …
