Boaters will find it easier to navigate waterways in central Wisconsin thanks to a new app developed by University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.
The Wisconsin Waterways app is the result of years of research. The UWSP Geographic Information Systems Center collected more than 120,000 data points on 2,800 acres of the Stevens Point Flowage. Three years ago, contour and depth information was gathered for Lake Wausau and 11 other lakes in Marathon County.
Researcher and Education Specialist Christine Koeller said the new app will help both recreational boaters and emergency responders.
