Troy (my professor at University of Nebraska), John (my old buddy from the Bronx, colleague, and fellow student), and I have big plans going forward. My main contribution will be to perform research on water level measurement with ground-based cameras and the use of the GRIME-AI software package from GaugeCam to detect and measure as yet undefined “things” of interests to ecologists and hydrologists. But first, I need to work with Troy to finish an in-progress article based on the fourth chapter of my dissertation, then gather data and write a second paper on our efforts to reduce the footprint of the calibration target we use in our water level measurements to the same size as a typical staff gauge used by the USGS. If that second paper is successful, we plan to extend the GRIME2 software package to accommodate those smaller calibration targets. Troy has a grad student who is currently writing code and running data for the second paper. It has been an enjoyable process working with him.
