Lake & reservoir mapping in Vermont
Vermont's lake associations and the state's Lakes and Ponds Program depend on repeatable data. We map milfoil, depth and bottom type for management and grant applications.
Vermont has more than 800 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.
