Topographic measurements of Little Holland Tract, Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California, 2015, using backpack GPS

Topographic data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 2015 for Little Holland Tract in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, California. The data were collected on foot using a global positioning system (GPS) backpack platform that consisted of survey-grade Trimble R10 and R7 global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers with Zephyr 2 antennas. Orthometric elevations relative to NAVD88 were computed using the National Geodetic Survey Geoid12a, and the final data were projected in ...

Surface sediment grain diameter measurements from point counts of in situ seafloor images collected in the lower Columbia River, Washington and Oregon, 2021

This dataset contains surface sediment grain diameter measurements from in situ seafloor images collected in the lower Columbia River, Washington and Oregon, in 2021. Surface sediment grain diameters were derived from manual measurements (or "point counts") in a subset of images used to calibrate and validate an automated image processing algorithm to determine surface sediment grain size distributions. For each calibration and validation image that was selected, the long and short axis of 100 grains were ...
