Lake Kapchagai KZ - An Ambitious Digitizing Project
Lake Kapchagai KZ
This is a very old project. It predates my EVS-Islands blog. Why post it now and on an islands blog site? I just felt that it would be interesting. This lake is one of the largest in the world. At the western end of the lake is a dam that helped to dry up the river to the north of it. Not a good thing. The river that flows to the north is the Ili River. I mapped the river as well as the lake. It was very time-consuming to complete both the lake and the river.
Enjoy the slideshow. It shows the lake from 1:400,000 down to 1:50,000 at three sites within the lake.
