Title Accounting for uncertainty in DEMs from repeat topographic surveys: improved sediment budgets
Creator Wheaton, Joseph M. Brasington, James Darby, Stephen E. Sear, David
Description Repeat topographic surveys are increasingly becoming more affordable, and possible at higher spatial resolutions and over greater spatial extents. Digital elevation models (DEMs) built from such surveys can be used to produce DEM of Difference (DoD) maps and estimate the net change in storage terms for morphological sediment budgets. While these products are extremely useful for monitoring and geomorphic interpretation, data and model uncertainties render them prone to misinterpretation. Two...
