About

Kansas Lake Maps is a site provided by ASTRA aimed primarily at boaters, fishermen, and other recreational users of our state waters. KansasLakeMaps.com provides free lake bottom contour (bathymetric) maps of over two dozen local, state, and federal lakes and reservoirs across the state.

The site is designed to allow a user to select a lake based on its name, area, depth, location by county, or proximity to the nearest city. Users can download a map suitable for viewing and printing in PDF format from the site.

Data for creating the lake maps came from ASTRA’s long-term program of reservoir bathymetric surveys, funded primarily by the Kansas Water Office under the Reservoir Sustainability Initiative.

As additional lakes continue to be mapped by ASTRA, maps for those reservoirs will be posted on the website, with the long-term intent of providing maps for nearly every reservoir in the state.

Contour maps of the lake bottom are the first product to be delivered via the website, with additional products in development.
