# fluvgeo
An `R` Package for Performing **Fluv**ial **Geo**mrphology Analysis
## Package Status

## Description
This package contains a wide range of functions for performing fluvial
geomorphic analysis. This `R` package is designed for use with the [FluvialGeomorph
ArcGIS toolbox](https://github.com/FluvialGeomorph/FluvialGeomorph). The FluvialGeomorph ArcGIS toolbox contains an tools that can be used to extract spatial data from high-resolution terrain data. The FluvialGeomorph ArcGIS toolbox depends on functions in this package to perform a wide range of fluvial geomorphic analysis:
* Calculate stream channel dimensions
* Calculate stream planform dimensions
* Produce reports of stream channel and planform dimensions
* Tools for choosing a bankfull elevation for ungaged streams
## Funding
Funding for development and maintenance of FluvialGeomorph has been provided by the following US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) programs:
* [Flood and Coastal Risk Management](https://www.erdc.usace.army.mil/Locations/CHL/Flood-Coastal-Risk-Management/)
* [Ecosystem Management and Restoration Research Program (EMRRP)](https://emrrp.el.erdc.dren.mil)
* [Regional Sediment Management Program (RSM)](https://rsm.usace.army.mil/)
* [Mississippi River Geomorphology and Potamology Program (MRG&P)](https://www.mvd.usace.army.mil/Missions/Mississippi-River-Science-Technology/MS-River-Geomorphology-Potamology/)
* [Flood Risk Management Program (FRM)](https://www.iwr.usace.army.mil/Missions/Flood-Risk-Management/Flood-Risk-Management-Program/)
