Summary
|
A beach and nearshore topographic survey consisting of one shore-normal
|
profile and one shore-parallel line (wet/dry line) was conducted. The profile
|
was extended offshore into the surf zone utilizing a swimming rodman.
|
|
Notes
|
The total station was set up on the west side of the bluff overlooking
|
Its Beach, between the guardrail and the edge of the cliff.
|
The SECO level rods, in conjunction with the level-rod support tripods
|
were placed on the control points and pointed towards the total station.
|
Program 10 (site setup) was performed on the total station
|
Program 20 (station establishment) was performed on the total station using option
|
"Unknown Station Location", utilizing Control Points 10501, 10503, and 10505.
|
Program 4 (UTM) was used to collect control and topo points
|
Control Points: 10505, 10501, and 10503 10502 were surveyed(Fast Standard mode)
|
The Wet/Dry line was surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod (Tracking mode)
|
The Profile was surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod (Tracking mode)
|
and carried offshore into the surf zone. Due to large waves and dangerous currents,
|
the profile was not carried to the maximum limit of the stadia rod, offshore.
|
Control Point 10502 was surveyed with the short EXTR stadia, in a hand-held manner
|
(Fast Standard mode)
|
Gretchen Luepke sketched the beach.
|
Thomas E. Reiss operated the total station and photographed the area.
|
Justin Friesner was the rodman.
