Riverscapes Metric Engine (RME)

RME Outputs

The Riverscapes Metric Engine compiles a suite of metrics that describe riverscape health and provide practical information for planning and prioritization. These metrics are summarized in a point feature class, Integrated Geographic Objects (IGOs), representative of a specific area of valley bottom.

Metrics with the “dgo” prefix are calculated for a single Discrete Geographic Object (DGO) associated with the IGO point. Metrics with the prefix “igo” are calculated using a moving window that extends a set distance upstream and downstream from the IGO, aggregating values from multiple DGOs.
