GIS, Mapping, and Natural Resource Inventories
Mapping
We develop and print maps of lakes, streams, or other water features. Maps can be made for entire water bodies, individual shoreline properties, or specific areas. Any information available can be included on the map, such as lake-bottom contours or survey results.
Natural Resource Inventories
We perform natural resource inventories at any scale (county to individual property) to assist local units of government, lake associations, and others with planning efforts. Data layers available for inventory maps include wetlands, lakes, streams, land use, soils, water tables, contours, roads, water quality data, contaminated areas, zoning information, and more.
Spatial Analyses
To address specific water resource problems or questions, we perform spatial analyses using geographical data. Examples of analyses include examining landuse change over time and prioritizing land conservation for water quality protection.To address specific water resource problems or questions, we perform spatial analyses using geographical data.

GIS Data
These GIS polygon data layers were developed by TOMWC using digital orthophotography (i.e., aerial photos) to provide improved lake shoreline delineations, as well as more accurate perimeter and area statistics. The zip files are named by lake with a suffix indicating the year of the aerial photographs used to develop the data layer.
