Selected Inputs of Siting Considerations for Satellite Observation of River Discharge Uncertainty of satellite discharge estimates is affected by choice of satellite sensor, hydraulic variable for observation, and discharge estimation algorithm, as well as the availability of ground-calibration data. Site selection is very important for reducing error and uncertainty in both conventional and satellite-based discharge measurements because geomorphic river characteristics have strong control over the relationships between discharge and depth, width, slope, and velocity. A ground-truth data set of 8,445 conventional hydraulic measurements, collected by acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) at 503 stations in the United States was developed to examine correlation between river discharge and river...
