Generates graphs, text files, and coordinates related to a given set of river data.
Description
Generates graphs, text files, and coordinates related to a given set of river data.
Usage
riverbuilder(filename, directory, overwrite)
Arguments
filename |
Name of the file to be processed. |
directory |
Path in which outputs will be generated. If non-empty, it must contain "\\" or "/" between directories/files, and never "\". An empty or invalid argument will result in files being generated in a temporary location. |
overwrite |
Flag that determines whether existing files will be overwritten. If the files already exist and this value is FALSE, the program will stop and produce an error. |
Value
None. Output files are generated in the specified (or temporary) directory:
BoundaryPoints.csv - Contains keys that map to specific points in CartesianCoordinates.csv that comprise the boundary around a river’s floodplain.
CartesianCoordinates.csv - Contains comma-separated XYZ coordinates for the synthetic river valley. A separate program such as ArcGIS can use these points to generate a 3D model.
Data.csv - Contains coefficients of variation, averages, standard deviations, channel slope, and other important information.
CenterlineCurvature.png - Displays the curvature of the channel's centerline.
CenterlineCurvature.csv - Contains coordinate data that was visualized in CenterlineCurvature.png.
ValleySection.png - Displays the cross section of the channel and floodplain at their midway point.
ValleySection.csv - Contains coordinate data that was visualized in ValleySection.png.
GCS.png - Displays the geometric covariance structures of: bankfull width and thalweg elevation; thalweg elevation and the channel meander.
GCS.csv - Contains coordinate data that was visualized in GCS.png.
LongitudinalProfile.png - Displays the side view of the river which consists of valley top, valley floor, bank top, and thalweg elevation.
LongitudinalProfile.csv - Contains coordinate data that was visualized in LongitudinalProfile.png.
Planform.png - Displays the bird’s eye view of the river which consists of the channel meander, channel bank, valley floor, and valley top.
Planform.csv - Contains coordinate data that was visualized in Planform.png.
