Summary
|
|
A beach and nearshore topographic survey consisting of two 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.
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
The total station was set up on the berm crest, in the
|
|
middle of the embayment. The HA reference was set to 000deg relative
|
|
to the telephone pole behind Control Point 10205. 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 10201, 10205, and 10206.
|
|
|
|
Program 4 (UTM) was used to collect control and topo points
|
|
|
|
Control Points: 10206, 10207, 10205, 10203, and 10201 were
|
|
surveyed (Fast Standard mode)
|
|
|
|
The Wet/Dry line was surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod
|
|
(Tracking mode)
|
|
|
|
The Profiles were surveyed using the EXP3 stadia rod (Tracking
|
|
mode) and carried offshore into the surf zone. Due to large waves
|
|
and dangerous currents, the profiles were not carried to the
|
|
maximum limit of the stadia rod, offshore.
|
|
|
|
Gretchen Luepke sketched the beach and assisted with the control points.
|
|
|
|
Thomas E. Reiss operated the total station and photographed the area.
|
|
|
|
Justin Friesner was the rodman
