Quantifying Potential Measurement Errors and Uncertainties Associated with Bathymetric Change Analysis
Byrnes M, Baker J, Li F. 2002. Quantifying Potential Measurement Errors and Uncertainties Associated with Bathymetric Change Analysis
This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes procedures for quantifying error and uncertainty estimates in volume change calculated from comparison of bathymetric surveys from two different times. Much of the background information regarding survey measurement standards presented may be found in manuals available at: http://www.thsoa.org/references.htm.
