File:Breach measurement distance m.png	BREACH_MEASUREMENT_DISTANCE_M	m		Distance behind the breach area for placing a more stable water level measurement.	100

Notes

• Distance behind the breach for placing a more stable water level measurement, used in the Verheij–van der Knaap growth formula.
• In order to place the measurement the breach area must have a BREACH_ANGLE.
• Only when the area behind the breach is lower then the breach level itself the measurement point can be placed. This prevents invalid measurements behind e.g. buildings.
