00:00:06.800 --> 00:00:10.391
Hi my name is Nick Stasulis and I work with
the Maine Office of the New England Water

00:00:10.391 --> 00:00:11.540
Science Center.

00:00:11.540 --> 00:00:14.920
In this video we will outline the process
of editing vertical information using the

00:00:14.920 --> 00:00:17.910
SonTek RSSL software.

00:00:17.910 --> 00:00:21.540
During playback and review of measurements
made with RSSL you may find entries that are

00:00:21.540 --> 00:00:26.200
incorrect and need to be fixed, such as incorrect
transducer depth or incorrect screening distance

00:00:26.200 --> 00:00:28.029
for the M9.

00:00:28.029 --> 00:00:33.190
Other data quality issues like velocity extrapolation
or user input water depth may need adjustment,

00:00:33.190 --> 00:00:34.190
too.

00:00:34.190 --> 00:00:38.220
These issues can be addressed by double clicking
on an individual station in the contour plot.

00:00:38.220 --> 00:00:41.610
A vertical dialog box will appear.

00:00:41.610 --> 00:00:45.870
Editable boxes in the center of the dialog
are Transducer Depth, User Input Water Depth

00:00:45.870 --> 00:00:49.260
and Screening Distance, as well as the coordinate
system.

00:00:49.260 --> 00:00:53.050
All of these entries can be changed for one
station or applied to all stations using the

00:00:53.050 --> 00:00:54.899
checkbox here.

00:00:54.899 --> 00:01:00.100
Be aware that the user input depth should
likely only apply to that one station.

00:01:00.100 --> 00:01:04.239
Evaluation of extrapolation methods is covered
in a separate video, but these settings can

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:08.750
be changed by selecting the profile extrapolation
button here and making edits in the box that

00:01:08.750 --> 00:01:10.000
appears.

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:13.190
Notice you can apply this setting to all stations.

00:01:13.190 --> 00:01:17.220
Often this is done for the entire measurement
and only on a section by section basis if

00:01:17.220 --> 00:01:21.910
a section is significantly different from
the typical profiles of the other sections,

00:01:21.910 --> 00:01:25.410
so the examination should concentrate on the
main part of the channel where the majority

00:01:25.410 --> 00:01:27.710
of discharge is.

00:01:27.710 --> 00:01:31.180
The velocity correction factor should not
need edits routinely, and the gage height

00:01:31.180 --> 00:01:34.510
information can be edited as well.

00:01:34.510 --> 00:01:38.260
In the system page, there are several other
fields in the system settings than be edited

00:01:38.260 --> 00:01:41.600
as needed, but understand they apply to the
entire measurement.
