Little Bear offers a suite of advanced survey techniques to provide detailed and accurate assessments of your aquatic environments. Our team of experienced professionals utilizes state-of-the-art technologies and methodologies to gather high-resolution data on aquatic plant communities, shoreline characteristics, and underwater topography (not for navigation).

Our point intercept surveys are designed to accurately map the distribution and abundance of aquatic plant species within your waterbody. Using a grid of predetermined sampling points, our team collects data on plant presence, density, and species composition at each location. This systematic approach provides a comprehensive snapshot of your aquatic plant community, enabling us to identify dominant species, assess biodiversity, and track changes over time.

In addition to plant and shoreline surveys, we specialize in bathymetric mapping to characterize the underwater topography of your waterbody (not intended for navigation). Using advanced sonar technology, our team collects high-density depth measurements across your lake or pond, creating a detailed map of the bottom contours. This information is essential for understanding water volume, habitat structure, and sediment distribution, and can inform a wide range of management decisions such as aeration options.

Our advanced survey techniques provide a wealth of data that can be used to develop targeted management strategies, prioritize restoration efforts, and monitor the effectiveness of interventions over time.
