HOA Selects The Mapping Network for Sediment Mapping and Analysis

The Mapping Network recently completed a mapping project for a large-scale home owners association in Arkansas.  The large lake had 8 coves and several homeowners were having difficulties accessing their dock due to sedimentation. The overall goal of the lake mapping project was to survey each cove for future dredging along with the creation of an accurate map of the entire lake.  The Mapping Network collected water depths over the entire lake and fluffy sediment levels…

Start a Sediment Plan with a Map

Here at The Mapping Network, we understand the challenges and costs associated with locating and removing sediment. We specialize in accurately mapping bodies of water, calculating the water volume, collecting sediment depth samples at critical areas and monitoring the distribution of sediment over time. Common questions from our clients: Where is the highest sedimentation occurring? How much fluffy sediment (in cubic yards) is in each cove? If the lake is drawn down 5 ft, what…

Sediment Mapping Saves POA Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars in Dredging Costs

by Trent Lewis (Pond Medics, Inc.) We recently worked with Lakeside on Preston HOA, in Plano, on their dredging project. The lakes in the community were approaching 18 years old and sediment had accumulated in the lakes to the extent islands had formed as if there were underwater volcanoes erupting and new land was emerging! Lakeside knew dredging was imminent, so they called several dredging contractors and asked them to submit quotes to perform the…

Jeff Foxworthy Lake Map and Trophy Bass Fishing

Over the past couple years Greg Grimes with Aquatic Environmental Services, Inc., has been working closely with Jeff Foxworthy to create a one-of-a-kind master planned lake designed specifically for growing trophy large-mouth bass. Extensive habitat structure, ridges, brush, feeders, etc were carefully placed during construction. GPS data points were recorded for each location and placed on a map for future reference.  Once the lake was full the client had the lake mapped utilizing The Mapping Network’s…
