Ice breakup on March 11, 2014, at the South Fork Grand River near Cash, SD, at USGS station 06356500. The ice breakup causes the water to surge onto the bank.

The hull of the vessel is complete. Burger Boat Co. removes the hull from the construction bay and uses cranes to flip it over. Then, it's taken back to the bay to continue working.

This video shows two methods of uploading SWAMI files into SiteVisit.

This video shows how to document environmental measurements.

This video shows how to document the following sensor types: radar, wire-weight gage, staff gage, reference point, and crest stage gage (CSG). In this example, measuring point elevations for the reference point and crest stage gage are not configured in SiteVisit.

This video shows how to document a discharge measurement that is an estimate.
