CONTAINED IN VOL. 11.02, 2017 Defines the user in selection of procedures commonly used to measure depth in water bodies.

1.1This practice guides the user in selection of procedures commonly used to measure depth in water bodies that are as follows:

Sections

Procedure A—Manual Measurement

6 through 11

Procedure B—Electronic Sonic-Echo Sounding

12 through 13

Procedure C—Electronic Nonacoustic Measurement

14 through 15


The text specifies depth measuring terminology, describes measurement of depth by manual and electronic equipment, outlines specific uses of electronic sounders, and describes an electronic procedure for depth measurement other than using sonar.

1.2The references cited and listed at the end of this practice contain information that may help in the design of a high quality measurement program.

1.3The information provided on depth measurement is descriptive in nature and not intended to endorse any particular item of manufactured equipment or procedure.

1.4This practice pertains to depth measurement in quiescent or low-velocity flow. For depth measurement related to stream gaging see Test Method D3858. For depth measurements related to reservoir surveys see Guide D4581.

1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
