Service Description: The U.S. Geological Survey, Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center (USGS-GCMRC) and the Geology Department within the Northern Arizona University, School of Earth Sciences and Environmental Sustainability (NAU) have collaborated for more than two decades to design, deploy and maintain a network of remote field cameras that monitor the exposed (above water), stored sediment resources of the Colorado River in Grand Canyon at more than 40 locations.
Automated camera systems deployed at 43 remote locations along the Colorado River corridor in Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, are used to document sandbar erosion and deposition that are associated with the operations of Glen Canyon Dam. The camera systems, which can operate independently for a year or more, consist of a digital camera triggered by a separate data controller, both of which are powered by an external battery and solar panel.
