A GIS-Enabled Approach for Assessing Damage Potential of Levee Systems Based on Underlying Geology and River Morphology

Table 4

Level of river meandering as a function of the sinuosity index, SI (after [5, 6]).

Sinuosity index, SI	Level of meandering
1.0-1.1	Straight
1.1–1.3	Sinuous
1.3–1.5	Slightly meandering
>1.5	Meandering
