California Bathymetry: Lake Map for Monitoring Sedimentation

California Bathymetry: Lake Map for Monitoring Sedimentation

Successful lake management requires an understanding of composition, depth and volume of your lake.  Terry McNabb,  President of Aquatechnex, with offices covering the west coast of the United States, had a client request an updated lake map to note current depths and mark sediment depths.  Information gathered during the lake mapping process helped Mr. McNabb’s client better comprehend the level of sedimentation building up over time in their lake.  The resulting map provided the baseline depth profile needed for long-term sedimentation monitoring.  Plus, the property owners had several large format wall maps printed to show friends and family where the unique characteristics of the lake are located.
