Summary
This deliverable provides the first versions of bathymetric and topographic maps for reservoirs to be surveyed including the Bui Power Dam and small and medium size reservoirs used for drinking water purposes and irrigation in Ghana and Zambia. The survey will be done using a combination of UAVs and low-cost GNSS, combined within the open-source photogrammetry platform OpenDroneMap with Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approaches from Abassi et al. (2017). These maps are essential for large scale flow estimates that use satellite images for flood mapping by establishing area-discharge curves. The deliverable relates to Task 7.3 - Bathymetry service development.
