UMRR Pool 22 Topobathy

Separate data for floodplain elevation and bathymetry were collected on the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS) by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Upper Mississippi River Restoration (UMRR) program. While many information needs can be met by using these data separately, in many cases seamless elevation data across the river and its floodplain are needed. This seamless elevation surface was generated by merging lidar (i.e., floodplain elevation) and bathymetry data. Merging the data required special processing in the areas of transition between the two sources of data.

美国陆军工程兵团（USACE）密西西比河上游修复（UMRR）项目组于密西西比河上游水系（UMRS）范围内采集了河漫滩高程与水深地形的独立数据集。尽管此类独立数据可满足多数信息需求，但在诸多实际场景中，亟需覆盖整条河道及其河漫滩的无缝高程数据集。该无缝高程表面通过融合激光雷达（lidar，即河漫滩高程数据）与水深地形数据生成。在两类数据源的过渡区域，数据融合需采用特殊处理流程。
