The Mapping Network and an engineering firm team up to perform a topographic survey on the land and a hydrographic survey on a portion of the lake where a new gas pipeline would be crossing. The pipeline is buried below the lake bottom and knowing the existing bottom of the lake is crucial to engineers placing the pipeline correctly. About The Mapping Network: The Mapping Network is an industry leader in Geographic Information Systems, GPS…
The Mapping Network team created a proposed berm construction plan for a client in Oklahoma. The primary objective of this project was to determine the size and location of the basin to put the dredged material. The client was looking for the cut and fill slopes, basin depth, capacity interval volumes, and amount of material cut and filled. The customer will use the information to assist with bids for dredging contractors to remove all the…
Solitude Lake Management, a lake mapping partner with The Mapping Network, completed a bathymetry and sediment survey for a HOA in Virginia. Current water depths and volume are required for treatment applications and fisheries management. Sediment samples throughout the lake identify problem areas and quantify the total amount of sediment. About The Mapping Network: The Mapping Network is an industry leader in Geographic Information Systems, GPS Data Collection, Aerial Imagery, and Data Conversion. We specialize…
The Mapping Network team surveyed two ash ponds for a coal power plant. The purpose was to quantity and locate ash accumulation in the pond because it needed to be removed per EPA regulations. By comparing the original bottoms of the ponds with the current bottom depths, a computer model calculated the location and amount of material. The power company used the information to assist with bids for dredging contractors to remove all the material….
The Mapping Network completed a hydrographic survey to show the current dredging status for a reservoir in Iowa. The survey crew also collected sediment measurements to quantify the amount of soft sediment remaining in the dredge zone. The Mapping Network generated maps to display the amount and location of material yet to be removed. This information allows the client and dredge contractor to plan the remaining dredge schedule for the project. About The Mapping Network: The…
The Mapping Network utilized sonar for collecting water depths and drone technology to collect elevation data surrounding the pond to create an accurate 3D model. This model was used to calculate a water capacity chart and help meet a federal mandate. About The Mapping Network: The Mapping Network is an industry leader in Geographic Information Systems, GPS Data Collection, Aerial Imagery, and Data Conversion. We specialize in terrain and sub-surface (bathymetry) GPS mapping, topographic mapping,…
The Mapping Network and Aquatic Environmental Services teamed up to create a bathymetric study and excavation plan for a homeowner near Atlanta, Georgia. The owner wants to achieve a minimum 3 foot water depth in the entire pond. 3D models comparing the proposed lake bottom with the existing lake bottom and calculated the amount of hard material to be removed. This critical information will be used to assist with bids for dredging contractors to remove all the material….
The Mapping Network has extensive experience performing hydrographic surveys on intake channels for power plants and drinking water intakes. On the example below The Mapping Network conducted a pre-dredge bathymetric survey along with calculating the amount of material needing to be removed. This information will be used to collect bids for dredging the area. About The Mapping Network: The Mapping Network is an industry leader in Geographic Information Systems, GPS Data Collection, Aerial Imagery, and Data Conversion. …
Solitude Lake Management created a bathymetry and sediment volume study for a property owners association in Virginia. The pond was mapped to understand current water depths and to calculate the amount of accumulated sediment. This timely analysis can facilitate future dredging and appropriate actions for maintaining a stable environment. About The Mapping Network: The Mapping Network is an industry leader in Geographic Information Systems, GPS Data Collection, Aerial Imagery, and Data Conversion. We specialize in…
A 200 acre reservoir in Des Moines, Iowa is undergoing a comprehensive renovation. Part of the plan included dredging problem areas in the lake. Hydraulic dredging will remove this deposited sediment from the lake bottom, increase lake depth, and provide multiple recreation benefits for the public. The Mapping Network completed several bathymetry surveys to verify the dredging process was complete for each section. The Mapping Network generated maps to display the amount and location of material…
