Observation site The sandbars 28 km upstream from the mouth of the Shonai River in Japan (figure 4). The sandbar were excavated in 2012 to obtain a flat surface. Several flood events changed the landscape (figure 5). Figure 2. procedure of the “pole camera” method Figure 3. Example of the surfece of the DSM Pole-camera method The “pole-camera” method was oroginaly proposed in the field of the active fault research (Goto, 2015). ・The operator needs to rotate the pole and himself while the co-operator stands beside and captures images using a remote controller (Sony, RM-LVR2) (figure 2). ・The RTK-GNSS (Sokkia, GSX2) was used to obtain locations of the the ground control point (GCP). ・The SfM-MVS software (Agisoft, PhotoScan Professional edition, Ver. 1.2.6) was applied to obtain the digital surface model (DSM) and the ortho-images of the site (figure 3). The obtained DSM was used as the topographical data for the calculation. Numerical calculation procedure Discahrge: 75 m³/s in the secondary channel (representing the small flood discharge illustrated by magenta colored arrows in figure 5). Topography: the DSM previously obtained Model: the customized version of Nays 2D of iRIC 2.1 (https://i-ric.org/en/). (brief results are shown in figure 6) Remote controlled camera (Sony, QX-1) 7m telescopic pole (Promate,E-4867) Operators must rotate themselves while shoot- ing. It requres about 20 images for each standing location. In a single survey, it must be repeated in 20 to 30 locations. co-operator using a remote controller (Sony, RM-LVR2) The SfM-MVS (Agisoft, PhotoScan Professional edi- tion, Ver. 1.2.6) technique was applied to obtain the DSM and the ortho-images of the observation site. Field observation Figure 5. Ortho-rectified images of the site derived by the proposed "pole-camera" method (the calculation area and conditions are illustrated in the image on 07/29 and 08/11/2016.) Figure 1. The “pole camera” method The particle distributions (at sampling locations on figure 7) were classified into two groups (figure 8); one being the fine sediment group (green) and the other being the coarse material (magenta). Figure 7. Sediment sampling locations on the ortho-image (8/11/2016) Figure 8. Particle distributions Calculation results The ratio of u vegetation (estimated flow velocity in the vegetated area) to w s (1mm particle settling velocity) was evaluated (figure 9) based on the calculation results. The colored areas denote the regions where the 1mm particles (relatively fine) were transported as suspended sediment (and not trapped). Most of the magenta markers (locations covered by coarse materials) were located in the areas of the colored contours. Figure 9.

Calculated depth and velocity Conclusions ・An alternative method to capture images for the SfM-MVS was proposed. ・The DSM was applied to a numerical calculation reproducing the flow structures. ・The estimated regions (without fine sediment deposits) were relatively consistent with the location where coarse materials were sampled on their surface. Purpose This study proposed an alternative method (figure1) to capture images for the SfM-MVS. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: This work was supported by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number JP19K04625. REFERENCES: Goto, H.
