-
Image
Hi everyone, If you’ve ever downloaded or used the earlier MATLAB version of RIVeR from this blog — first of all, thank you . Your interest, feedback, and questions have helped shape what comes next. I’m excited to share that the next generation is here: 🎉 RIVeR 3 is now available! 🚀 What’s New in RIVeR 3 ✅ Fully open-source and free to use ✅ Rewritten from the ground up in Python + React ✅ No more MATLAB dependencies or license requirements ✅ Modern, intuitive graphical interface with guided workflows ✅ Multilingual : English, Spanish, and French ✅ Easy-to-install binaries for Windows, macOS, Ubuntu, and more ✅ Powerful Command Line Interface (CLI) for batch workflows ✅ Automatic HTML reports for documentation and sharing ✅ Developed as part of the RIVeR-LAC project , supported by WMO HydroHub and IDB RIVeR 3 is the result of everything we’ve learned so far — and it’s built for real-world hydrometric monitoring using Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) . ...

RIVeR v2.6 is finally out and it comes with the very asked feature of batch processing and parallel processing ! Batch processing is specially designed to process many videos recorded from a fixed camera.  You can now use RIVeR not only on Windows but also on IOS🍏 and Linux🐧 ! What is new in details ? In the main menu: Batch processing !🤘 Manual Tracking feature  Embedded PIVlab 2.58 (Release September2022) Parallel processing 🚀 Fixed minor bugs In the discharge module: Added (+ and -) STD area on the velocity profile Added 5% and 95% percentile area on the velocity profile Display of velocities from manual tracking and possibility to use thes value for discharge computation. Fixed minor bugs We hope that you enjoy  and thanks again for the feedback ! Stay tuned because Good news is coming !

RIVeR v2.5    is out and compiled with MCR 9 - 2015b  What is new ? In the main menu: Embedded PIVlab 2.36 (Release June 2020) Calculates median velocity field instead of mean New sequencing style option added for automatic PIV processing Added pixel size definition if already known in 2D  Control Points definition Added Control Points definition by loading a file (more than 4 points are allowed) Added pixel diagonal size on original image after Control Points definition With 3D rectification, the Control Points are re-projected on the original image (this lets you check quickly if your input is all good) Cross Section vectors are also projected on original image Fixed exporting the current velocity field Fixed minor bugs Updated RIVeR's logo 😎 In the discharge module: Added interpolation of velocity profile with Froude number Added a button that replace velocity at selected station by NaN  Added a check box for NaNs interpolations in veloci...

Update RIVeR 2.4.1 !

-
If you liked RIVeR 2.4  with all its new features you will love RIVeR 2.4.1. with the followings changes: New and more adequate frame extraction method: frame step is now defined instead of frame rate. Fixed the bug when the water level is defined as the same as the first stage point.  Fixed the bug that saved the last unshaked frame into the second unshaked frame. Fixed the bug in the HTML report that displayed the discharge value without applying the coefficient between the mean velocity and the superficial velocity. Fixed the bug that occurred when you defined the CPs with a single length that has more than 3 digits. More bugs fixed...
