Lake Mapping in Florida

Lake & reservoir mapping in Florida

Florida's shallow, warm lakes grow vegetation faster than anywhere in the country. Biovolume mapping before and after treatment shows exactly where herbicide budgets are working.

Florida has more than 7,700 lakes. 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.
