Sakatah Lake Shoreline Study
Lake Shoreline Study
EOR uses drone technology to conduct shoreline surveys from the ground and air simultaneously. A survey of Lower Sakatah Lake, combining aerial imagery and first-hand observation following MnDNR's Score Your Shore framework created a vivid snapshot of lakeshore conditions to establish for a baseline reference for the entire lake. EOR's drone team captured video footage of the entire shoreline, completed editing and post-processing in house.
