River. Morph: Use Case #1 Find the hydro-morphologic measurements available in a specific stream reach Search for reach in the watershed Search for measurements in the stream reach Show measurement locations and download the ADCP files (raw format)

River. Morph: Use Case #2 Reach scale analysis: assembly & visualization of multi-instrument data acquisition Courtesy of T. Pratt (USACE)

River. Morph: USE CASE #2 Reach scale analysis: assembly & visualization of multi-instrument data acquisition Multi-beam echosounder (MBES) and Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP)

River. Morph: USE CASE #2 Reach scale analysis: assembly & visualization of multi-instrument data acquisition Bedform movement (Acoustic Mapping Velocimetry applied to MBES data)

RIO: USE CASE #2 Reach scale analysis: assembly & visualization of multi-instrument data acquisition Suspended sediment concentration (ADCP data) Calibration against LISST Suspended sediment concentration mapping

River. Morph: Use Case #3 Long-term channel morphology forecasting: hydro-dynamic and sediment transport models to forecast changes in channel geometries and bed material composition Example Scenario of 50 -yr Forecasted Bed Elevations

River. Morph: Community Building Workshop • Community building and partnership workshop • Spring 2021 • Federal and state agencies and organization, industry and academia • Check River. Morph website for workshop announcement and details: https: //rivermorph. org

River. Morph Summary • A scalable platform independent resource to publish, access, visualize and analyze river morphology data • Prototype development and use cases will demonstrate wider applicability and scalability of River. Morph for the wider community • In initial stages of development and we welcome interested partners and collaborators with interest in river morphology data and research
