I. AIMS, CONTEXT METHODOLOGY

Page 4: Langhammer, Miřijovský

Research aims and context

Research aim

- Assessment of the dynamics of fluvial processes in

montane area under disturbance

Key tasks

- Acquirement of relevant spatial data for analysis of

geomorphological changes in montane streams

- Dynamics of fluvial processes in the basins

- Spatial distribution and volumes of bank erosion

and fluvial accumulations

- Simulation of potential future changes of riverbed

dynamics

Page 5: Langhammer, Miřijovský

Spatial data for small catchments

- Small catchments have specific requirements for spatial data

- High spatial resolution and accuracy for detailed analysis

- High temporal resolution for analyis of multitemporal changes

- High operability and flexibility of survey

- Reasonable operation costs

- ... but meet with frequent problems

- Lack of relevant data

- Data of unsatisfactory spatial or temporal resolution or quality

- Potential for application of new technologies

in surveying, monitoring and modeling

- Need of multidisciplinary approach

Optical granulometry- principle

• Image analysistechnique

• Automated identificationof objects– Coarse-grained sediments

• Calibration

• Automatic calculationof grain size curves

• MatLab tool BaseGrain

• Data acquisition– UAS

– Field survey

Page 14: Langhammer, Miřijovský

• Setting up the parameters of classification- image analysis thresholds- connectivity- object distance- object area

Optical granulometry- identification of objects

• Corrections of classification- removing redundant objects (sand,

vegetation)- merging and splitting

of objects- deleting of redundant objects
