The Virtual Geographic Environment (VGEs) is a framework in which real-world information is conveyed and converted into the digital world. It contributes to a better understanding of geographic knowledge by human beings and helps decision-makers by giving them a profound view of geographic concerns like three-dimensional (3D) models. The production of 3D models is essential for the characterization, monitoring, and management of water areas. This study aims to expose the 3D model of the pond in the presence of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Acoustic Doppler Profile (ACDP) bathymetry to precisely determine the actual amount of water in the pond for possible water problems in the future. Moreover, determine how the sediments carried by the mainstream and side tributaries feeding the pond affect the pond’s water volume and in which parts of the pond their accumulation is concentrated. This study will contribute to the literature by using an ACDP device for the bathymetry measurement process which is rare in the literature. In this approach, the pond's underwater topography of the pond contributed to the sustainable management of the pond by producing Digital Elevation Models (DEM), which is a sensitive indicator of climate change and man-made effects.
