Lake Mapping in Arizona

Lake & reservoir mapping in Arizona

In Arizona every acre-foot counts. Accurate volumetric surveys tell water managers exactly how much storage remains as sediment builds and lake levels fall.

Arizona has critical Colorado, Salt and Verde River reservoirs. Lake Monitor AI provides on-site bathymetric depth mapping, aquatic vegetation mapping, bottom composition and hardness mapping, fish and habitat mapping, side-scan imagery and GIS deliverables for waterbodies of every size across the state — from private ponds to major reservoirs.
