Riverbed monitoring and modeling using GIS

Abstract

The study aims to assess the changes in the riverbed that have occurred in various periods using GIS technologies. Topographic maps of different years will be used for the analysis. The riverbed has been digitized (for each period), determining the change in displacement and dislocation. The assessed dynamics of changes allow us to monitor the changes in the riverbed that have occurred due to both natural processes and anthropogenic impact. By performing two-dimensional and three-dimensional modeling, the spatial extent and intensity of the bed change were visualized. The results obtained reflect the relationship between riverbed transformations and potential natural and anthropogenic factors, allowing us to assess long-term trends in river morphology change.
