Calculating Water Volume after Dredging in New York

Allied Bilogical, a lake mapping partner within The Mapping Network helped a Home Owners Association (HOA) map a series of ponds and waterways.  The HOA was preparing for permitting and dredging proposals and they needed the current water volume and post dredge water volume for each water body unit.  Also part of the project was sediment core sampling to understand the type of sediment materials in the ponds.   This information will assist the HOA in controlling projects costs and scope.

The map on the left shows the current water depths in the pond.  The map on the right shows what the pond will look like once the soft sediment is removed
