Purpose: the dataset includes raw and processed data used to investigate the movement of a river bifurcation over a 30 year period and to analysis grain structural forms (clusters) on the river bed. Nature: the data includes • QGIS project files and associated files such as photos and output tifs, • csv files of measured grain diameters, river flow analysis and outputs of cluster analysis • txt files with short sections of code used in Google Earth Engine and Jupyter Notebook
