Hi Ole, At SMHI (Sweden)

~>80% of our measurements. We use QRevINT for moving boat and it is mandatory.

~10% of our measuements. Stationary ADCP QRevINT MS – but not as mandatory, since its new, earlier years SxSpro. Most common we use stationary ADCP methods for correcting the long ice jams or in cases where moving boat fails for some reason.

~10% of our measurments. At shallower streams we use FlowTracker2 or salt dilution methods from Fathom QiQuac or Sommer.
