QRev Extrapolation
Tuesday July 16, 2024 3:00pm - 3:50pm CDT
Grand Ballroom B
When performing ADCP discharge measurements, data is extrapolated to compute estimates for discharge above and below the measured data. QRev automates the computation of each possible extrapolation model and suggests the best model. QRev also offers additional settings such as discharge weighted median and custom sub-sectioning. This talk explains the various extrapolation methods and discusses the extrapolation settings available within QRev.
