Summer Calm on Flying Pond in the Belgrade Lakes Region of Maine

Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program has shared this exciting news with us. Whether you are a water quality monitor, invasive plant patroller, or simply someone who loves to spend time on Maine lakes, you will be very pleased with their new and improved lake maps!

Developed by Maine DEP Geographic Information System (GIS) wizard, Doug Suitor, the new maps provide lots of useful information, including the following:
– Improved shoreline accuracy (based on aerial photography)
– Location of deep stations marked, with coordinates shown in decimal degrees
– Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife lake-wide depth data
– Surrounding roads and road names
– Total lake surface acreage
– Page number where the lake can be found in the DeLorme Maine Atlas & Gazeteer
– MIDAS number (unique identification number for the lake; used on all VLMP field forms)
Expected date of availability is January 1, 2015. The new lake maps will be available on both the VLMP and Lakes of Maine web sites.  Click on the ‘Search for Your Lake’ button to access the maps.
