Procedures for Running Station Levels & Hands-On Training
LIMITED
Monday July 20, 2026 8:00am - 5:00pm CDT
BCC - Lackey (58 Tiered Class Only)
Limited Capacity seats available
This training is in two parts: a morning classroom session and an afternoon hands-on session. The classroom portion will cover policy and procedures for running station levels found within the Techniques and Methods 3-A19 Levels at Gaging Stations as well as proper documentation within SVMobileAQ and SLAP. The hands-on session will include students using the digital instrument, reading the rod optically, running a short circuit to completion, and the best way to level in reference and auxiliary gages; this portion will be outdoors or indoors depending upon weather conditions so plan accordingly. Students will need to bring their computers; instructors will provide a Class Mode Version of SVMobileAQ for students to load onto their computers.

I'm the Columbus OH Field Office Chief for the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana WSC. For my 1st 2.5 years in the USGS, I worked out of the Pacific Islands WSC in Honolulu, Hawaii. I accepted a position in Columbus, Ohio to return to my home state and be closer to family having grown up in Cincinnati... Read More →

  • Notes
  • 'This is independent
  • *** I had previously submitted a session on 'Indirect Measurement of Peak Flows at Culverts' for this workshop. Please CANCEL that session
  • Additional to this presentation
  • an outdoor one would be o
  • and backend systems
  • and gather feedback for future implementation. Jack Eggleston has asked Kim Schaeffer and Chris
  • as it will be incorporated into this more general session.
  • but I have a hotspot. Presuming cell coverage is ok
  • but not in depth
  • but ties into Patrick Haluska and my talk regarding LoRaWAN. The demonstration in that talk will utilize similar underlying systems.
  • but ties into Trevor Violette's talk regarding ntfy systems.'
  • Can do 20 mins if that's better for scheduling
  • Can do 50 mins if it fits better
  • communications
  • Coordinate with other LabVantage talks from Kalfsbeek and others
  • Could fit in efficiency track
  • I am attempting to get 2-3 other people to help with this session
  • I am participating in another talk related to Superfly. It would be helpful if my two talks could exist on the same day. Dave Rus submitted the Superfly talk. It is a trio of talks in a time slot.
  • I could expand this to 80 minute session if that helps.
  • I could lengthen this to 80 minutes if that was beneficial.
  • I will have others present this just don't know who yet; may not do it this year.
  • I will need free cookies to encourage people to attend.
  • I would love to be on the agenda. Thanks!
  • I would prefer this to be offered towards the beginning of any of the coding sessions
  • I'm not sure which track this session belongs in: AQUARIUS? COMPUTER TOOLS? EFFICIENCY? DATABASE?
  • If there is a Monday Data Chief meeting I will present this talk during that meeting. If there isn't one
  • In past years we've done this in 2
  • It would be good to include with other groundwater network presentations.
  • it's a good introduction. If folks had internet available
  • makes the most sense after other LIMS talks announcing timelines and higher-level plans.
  • Milk
  • Monday session
  • more cookies
  • n/a
  • None.
  • or 4 hour blocks
  • Planning a larger 1/2 Image Velocimetry Training class/track on Monday (or it has been Mondays in the past). This is just a normal discussion/seminar
  • please let us know as soon as possible so I can see if the presenters are available any other times. In past yea
  • Please try to avoid scheduling conflicts with sessions describing other image velocimetry tools
  • possibly some AI/ML if we get that much built before the workshop...
  • Prefer to include in a groundwater focus session with a presentation by Candice Hopkins following this presentation. Thanks
  • Probably fits in an imagery track (even though there isn't one this year). It's going to focus on gage hardware
  • Put it in whatever track you'd like.
  • Relates talks about the future of lab data in AQSamples
  • Should be on similar track for WMA LIMS Workflows session and any NWQL ASR Submission sessions
  • shouldn't need special IT support
  • so I don't need to be a part of the entire session. I will need at least 2 sets of surveying equipment (I can bring my own). I will need at least an indoor space
  • so they should be sequential in the schedule.
  • standalone training that is specific to this instrument only
  • such as the IVy software developed by Frank Engel.
  • Thank you!
  • Thanks for all your work!
  • Thanks!
  • that would be helpful for troubleshooting questions at the end.
  • The LDM Open Forum has typically been done on Monday so the LDMs could attend the other sessions throughout the week. If Monday will not work
  • there are more in depth presentations being done by other WMA team members this week. If possible this class should come first in the WDFN presentations
  • There are multiple 'Future Directions' talks I have planned but people do not need to attend each of them. They deal with different aspects and are stand alone.
  • There will be at least one other salt dilution presentation. It would be ideal if this presentation could precede it.
  • This is a broad intro to the Water data for the nation homepage and tools
  • This is a follow up to the Part 1 NuGo2 session
  • This is a placeholder for the typical Monday DC meeting
  • This is independent
  • This is part of several talks I am proposing but they do not build on one another. People can attend this without having attended the others.
  • This presentation is subject to change and/or addition or subtraction of presenters based on field support frameworks that currently under evaluation.
  • This session is for managers only.
  • This session will be a good followup to the 'Intro to dataRetrieval' session proposed by Laura DeCicco.
  • This should come after our longer 50 min presentation
  • This talk is intended to be a standalone presentation on a new tool to use when processing submersible pressure transducers. It applies to any use for submersible pressure transducers that involves deploying the sensor in the air. I selected surface water
  • This will cover high-level overview of UAS operations general information for WSC management and scientists. This is very much a presentation and NOT a training session.
  • This would fall under the general umbrella of Water Mission Area -Observing Systems Division technical support to WSCs
  • This would work well as the first of a 3 x 20 minute session that will be followed by Dave Rus presenting on the Triangle project and then finishing with a LIMS-to-AQS talk by Kate Norton
  • This would work well as the middle of a 3 x 20 minute session that is preceded by a Superfly-LIMS talk and followed by a LIMS-to-AQS talk by Kate Norton
  • too. Newish tool we've recently improved and could help save time.
  • usually on Monday.
  • we hope to have an exhibit in the common area with large monitors to run live demos of WaterMAP
  • which will be for managers only. There are still plenty of details to work out on our end. We've had as many as ~100 people in the past. Thanks.
  • will cover some general CQW practices
  • Will need VPN
  • work with people one-on-one
  • Would pair well with any other Salt Dilution trainings
  • You guys are the best!
  • You guys rock!
