Abstract

INFLECT is a Python tool for identifying persistent topographic features of river corridors, such as channel banks and floodplain terraces, using topography as the only input data source. INFLECT uses cross-sections derived from a digital elevation model (DEM) to identify inflections in cross-section width, which are indicative of topographic features. Inputs to INFLECT are a DEM, a river thalweg/centerline, and a set of transects spanning the study reach. Outputs include a series of diagnostic figures, a set of elevations representing major topographic feature locations on the study reach, and a shapefile of topographic feature locations along the input transects.
