Underwater Drone to Map Loch Ness Floor

RMF FM Poland Inverness 14d Impact 3
A marine exploration company is launching a new mission to map parts of the Loch Ness lakebed using an advanced underwater drone. The device operates at depths reaching nearly 230 meters. This new technology offers significantly higher resolution than previous equipment used in expeditions. Earlier tools could detect large masses but lacked the precision to identify specific hiding spots. Experts estimate that only 3% of the lake's 54 square kilometer surface has been mapped in high resolution. The search will focus on the Uchart Bay area on the northern shore, where most sightings of the legendary creature are reported. The mission aims to identify potential hiding places for the creature.

“Experci szacują, że zaledwie 3% dna jeziora, którego powierzchnia wynosi ponad 54 km2, zostało dotychczas zmapowane w tak wysokiej rozdzielczości. Nowe poszukiwania skoncentrują się na Zatocę Uckhart na północnym brzegu”
