Abstract
A method of processing geo-statistical data includes piloting a watercraft with a monitoring system on a water body, measuring depths of the water body, elevations of the watercraft, and positions of the watercraft using the monitoring system. The method also includes aligning the depths and the elevations with the positions, creating an average elevation using the elevations, and creating a contour map from the depths, positions, and the first average elevation.
