<br />. <br /> <br />70(1 <br /> <br />HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING '94 <br /> <br />The results of the photogrammetric investigations showed that the deler- <br />mina.ion of the surface of the water meets. the hydrological demands, especially if <br />the relative change of the water surface level is of interest. The precision of the <br />measurements of the bank lines depends on the interpretation and definition of the <br />water boundaries Sometimes it was bard to define the boundary between water and <br />lIIui1>lCned Mones. Furthermore. these difficulties were increased at covered and <br />underexpost:d places of the model area. In future projects, the coloring of the waler <br />or .he use of infrared films could facilitate the measurements of the bank lines in the <br />stereo pairs. <br /> <br />3.3. Sail-dilution method <br />The sall-dilulion melhod is the best applicahle hydromelric melhod to deter- <br />mine the discharge and the mean velocity of IUrbulenl uniform now in mountain <br />rivers. h is based on lhe injeclion of a precisely known sale solulion quantity, and on <br />the registration of the conductivilY graph. <br />The most importanl parameter of solute transpon. the dispersion coefficient, is <br />obtained through this method. This parameter is of increasing importance fur <br />pollulion control and risk management. <br /> <br />4.

Conclusions <br />Although lhe amounl of observations is small, the praclicality of this procedure <br />has been proved. The observations, perfomled within a small range of discharge <br />values lead to lower Slrickler coefficients than the commonly assumed values for <br />torrents. ' <br />The following are recommended ror fulure use of this approach: <br />Color film, or even beuer infrared film lo beller discriminate water against <br />river bed. and resolution of at least ASA400. <br />photographs should be taken as close to vertical as possible <br />in order to gel ohservations over a wide range of disdmrge values, dilution <br />method and photographs should be performed autumatically loll distinct rales IIf <br />now IGru,ww, 1986) <br /> <br />6.
