PREFACE
This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee on Measurement of Water Flow
in Open Channels and Closed Conduits. It is identical with and has been reproduced from
ISO 4369 — 1979, Measurement of liquid flow in open channels — Moving-boat method.
This Standard is one of a series which deals with methods of measurement of water flow in open
channels. The series when complete will consist of the following parts:
Part 1: Vocabulary and symbols
Part 2.1: General—Guidelines for the selection of methods of measurement
Part 2.2: General—Establishment and operation of a gauging station
Part 2.3: General—Determination of the stage-discharge relation
Part 2.4: General—Estimation of uncertainty of a flow-rate measurement
Part 2.5: General—Guidelines for the selection of flow gauging structures
Part 3: Velocity-area methods —
Method 3.1: Measurement by current-meters and floats
Method 3.2: Measurement by moving-boat method (this Standard)
Method 3.3: Measurement by slope-area method
Method 3.4: Collection and processing of data for determination of errors in measurement

For the purposes of this Australian Standard, the ISO text should be modified as follows:
(a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear; referring to this Standard, they should be
read as Australian Standard’.
(b) Wherever the word ‘fluid’ appears, it should be read as ‘water’
(c) Substitute a point (.) for a comma (,) as a decimal marker.
(d) The references to other publications should be replaced by references to Australian Standards.
