Capabilities of Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry to Characterize Shallow Free-Surface Flows

Irrespective of their spatial extent, free-surface shallow flows are challenging measurement environments for most instruments due to the relatively small depths and velocities typically associated with these flows. A promising candidate for enabling measurements in such conditions is Large-scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV).
