Lake & reservoir mapping in Ontario
Ontario has more lakes than any other jurisdiction on earth, and its cottage associations and conservation authorities are asking for better data. We deliver bathymetric, vegetation and habitat maps across the province.
Ontario has more than 250,000 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 province — from private ponds to major reservoirs.
