Abstract

The River Obstacles dataset is an inventory of weirs, waterfalls, sluices, dams, culverts, fords and flap gates, compiled initially from digital Ordnance Survey maps and the Environment Agency's Detailed River Network AfA036 (DRN) and improved and extended using information submitted by users via the River Obstacles App. The information collected using the River Obstacles App is quality checked and verified before being added to the dataset.
