Summary

In 2016, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) started collecting high-resolution multibeam echosounder (MBES) data on Lake Koocanusa. The survey originated near the International Boundary (River Mile (RM) 271.0) and extended down the reservoir, hereinafter referred to as downstream, about 1.4 miles downstream of the Montana 37 Highway Bridge near Boulder Creek (about RM 253). USACE continued the survey in 2017, completing a reach that extended from about RM 253 downstream to near Tweed Creek (RM 244.5). In 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Idaho Water Science Center completed the remaining portion of the reservoir from RM 244.5 downstream to Libby Dam (RM 219.9). The MBES data collected in 2016 and 2017 by the USACE was combined [...]

Purpose

The purpose of this data release is to publish multibeam echosounder (MBES) bathymetric data and associated data products collected during 2016-2018 to support an updated stage-capacity table for Lake Koocanusa. The USACE surveyed RM 271 to RM 244.5 during 2016 and 2017. The USGS surveyed RM 244.5 to RM 219.9 in 2018.
