Summary
Doppler technology,
similar to that used by meteorologist to track weather
patterns, has been developed and expanded to fill the need
for advanced water flow measurement technology that is
relatively easy to use, applicable to various hydraulic
conditions, and very accurate. This report discusses the
operation of doppler units, provides a comparison of the
technology, benefits, cost, and use.
