Sixth Water/Diamond Fork data repository

Datasets generated during Jabari Jones' Master's thesis at Utah State University, focused on channel change of Sixth Water Creek and Diamond Fork River, Utah, USA (Jones, J.C., 2018. Historical channel change caused by a century of flow alteration on Sixth Water Creek and Diamond Fork River, UT. Master's thesis, Utah State University). This resource includes data collected in the field as well as data generated in GIS. Field data include cross-section surveys, RTK GPS surveys, sediment transport measurements, bed grain size analysis, and unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) photography. GIS data include shapefiles generated from aerial imagery and digital elevation models. Data were collected and generated between July 2016 and May 2018 All data, metadata and related materials meet the quality standards relative to the purpose for which they were collected and generated.

本数据集由贾巴里·琼斯（Jabari Jones）在美国犹他州立大学攻读硕士学位期间生成，聚焦于美国犹他州第六水溪（Sixth Water Creek）与戴蒙德福克河（Diamond Fork River）的河道变迁研究（Jones, J.C., 2018. 美国犹他州第六水溪与戴蒙德福克河百年水流改变引发的历史河道变迁. 硕士学位论文, 犹他州立大学）。本资源包含野外采集数据与地理信息系统（Geographic Information System, GIS）生成数据两类。其中野外数据包括河道断面测量、实时动态差分定位（Real-Time Kinematic, RTK）全球定位系统（Global Positioning System, GPS）测量、泥沙输移量监测、河床沉积物粒度分析以及无人机（Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV）航拍影像；GIS数据包括由航空影像与数字高程模型（Digital Elevation Model, DEM）生成的形状文件（shapefiles）。所有数据的采集与生成工作均于2016年7月至2018年5月期间完成。全部数据、元数据及相关材料均符合其采集生成目标对应的质量标准要求。
