IISD-ELA Bathymetry Data Processing Repository

Materials for IISD-ELA's bathymetry processing method. Raw coordinates are processed into useful data products (geospatial lake polygon, contour lines, and DEM; tabular data; map PDFs). Requires ArcGIS Pro or related software.

• PythonScript_BathymetryProcessing_IISD-ELA.py and HowToDoc_BathymetryProcessing_IISD-ELA.md should be used side-by-side to undertake raw data processing. They also explain setup and context.
• TemplateTables holds csv files required for the tabular data production part of the script.
• ExampleData holds a csv file of raw bathymetry transect coordinates that can be used to test the process.
• ExampleMetadataSchema holds two csv files of example schema (i.e. column names) that may be used as part of a bathymetry metadata collection system.
• SymbologyLayers holds ArcGIS Pro lyrx files which are used for the map production part of the process. The files hold symbol information (such as line width, colour, label settings, etc.) that can be applied to GIS feature classes on a map in ArcGIS Pro.
• media contains images references in the how-to markdown doc, for image display in markdown (the files can be ignored).
• CITATION.cff is used to make the repository citable.
