Hydrographic Survey Integration

Georeferencing Hydrographic Surveys

Georeference hydrographic surveys and reference high-resolution flow data on top of them for precise analysis.

Traditional hydrographic surveys often live in static PDFs or disconnected CAD files. WaterWise brings these valuable datasets into the geospatial environment, georeferencing them with high precision to overlay against LiDAR-derived terrain, flowlines, and infrastructure inventories.

This integration supports critical workflows:

  • •Change Detection:Compare historical surveys to current conditions.
  • •Conflict Analysis:Identify discrepancies between recorded rights and physical reality.
Georeferenced survey overlay example
Bringing survey data into a geospatial context allows for direct comparison with aerial imagery.
