- 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 minor bugs fixed...

Tutorial for 3D rectification

Image
As you know RIVeR lets you rectify results with Control Points that are in the same plane but also when you have a 3D cloud of points. And here you can whatch a video of the propper workflow. The  GRP.xls file is a 6 columns files with the following structure: GRP1 X1 Y1 Z1 x1 y1 GRP2 X2 Y2 Z2 x2 y2 GRP3 X3 Y3 Z3 x3 y3 GRPn Xn Yn Zn xn yn With (X,Y,Z) the real world coordinates and (x,y) the pixel coordinates The Real World Roi.xls file must have a 2 colums structure: Xi Yi Xj Yj Xk Yk Xi Yi Disclaimer: The video processed in this tutorial is property of USGS and is preliminary or provisional and is subject to revision.
