Lake & reservoir mapping in Maryland
Maryland's drinking-water reservoirs serve millions around Baltimore and Washington. We map their remaining capacity and the vegetation that affects intakes.
Maryland has a network of reservoirs and one large natural lake. 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.
