River channel bank height data for the Rio Beni, Bolivia (NERC grant NE/H009108/1)

Each file contains four columns of data representing: column 1: UTM Zone 19S Easting coordinate for survey location along the Rio Beni, Bolivia. column 2: UTM Zone 19S Northing coordinate for survey location along the Rio Beni, Bolivia. column 3: Measurment range from observer to bank in m column 4: Bank height in m (the difference between bank top and low flow water level) UTM coordinates were measured using a Trimble Global Position System with OmniSTAR HP correction Measurement range and bank height were measured using a GPS supported laser range finder (Impulse 200 LR< Laser Technology inc) Survey 1 was carried out between 15th and 19th September 2011, when the flow discharge within the Beni was in the range 453-530 cumecs Survey 2 was carried out between 20th and 23rd September 2011, when the flow discharge within the Beni was in the range 762-892 cumecs

Statement
Data consist of measurements of river bank height relative to the low flow water surface. Data were collected using a Trimble Global Position System with OmniSTAR HP correction, combined with a laser range finder (Impulse 200 LR< Laser Technology inc). Measurements were taken from a boat moving downstream (survey 1) and upstream (survey 2) along the Rio Beni, Bolivia.
