Summary
|
A beach and nearshore topographic survey consisting of three
|
shore-normal profiles and one shore-parallel line (wet/dry line) was conducted.
|
The profiles were extended offshore into the surf zone utilizing a swimming
|
rodman. The total station was set up on Control Point 11201 "GL SETUP". This
|
location, although very distant from the beach, has a commanding view of the
|
entire beach and nearshore region. The HA reference was set to 000deg relative
|
to Control Point 11205 "Esplanade". The SECO level rods, in conjunction with the
|
level-rod support tripods were placed on the control points and pointed towards
|
the total station.
|
|
Notes
|
Program 10 (site setup) was performed on the total station
|
|
Program 20 (station establishment) was performed on the total
|
station using option "Known Station Location", utilizing Control
|
Point 11201 as the station location and Control Point 11205 as the
|
known reference object.
|
|
Program 4 (UTM) was used to collect control and topo points
|
|
Control Points: 11205, 11202, and 11204 were surveyed
|
(Fast Standard mode)
|
|
The Profile SN2 was surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod
|
(Tracking mode) and carried offshore into the surf zone. Due to
|
the gently sloping nature of the offshore bathymetry, the profile
|
was terminated at the intermediate maximum limit of the EXP3
|
stadia rod.
|
|
The Wet/Dry line was surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod
|
(Tracking mode)
|
|
The Profiles SN1A and SN1 were surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod
|
(Tracking mode) and carried offshore into the surf zone. Due to the
|
gently sloping nature of the offshore bathymetry, the profile was
|
terminated at the intermediate maximum limit of the EXP3 stadia rod.
|
|
Gretchen Luepke sketched the beach and assisted with the control points.
|
|
Thomas E. Reiss took written notes and photographed the area.
|
|
Kristin M. Brown operated the total station.
|
|
Justin Friesner was the rodman.
