Lake Mapping in Maine

Lake & reservoir mapping in Maine

Maine lake associations are among the most active in the country. We give them repeatable depth and vegetation baselines to protect their lakes from invasive plants.

Maine has nearly 6,000 lakes and ponds. 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.
