TerraViso BNG Module

---

 TerraViso supports the full BNG process: 

• Understand your biodiversity outcome instantly – see net gain, losses, and overall performance at a glance 
• Break down results by habitat and parcel – identify where gains and risks occur across the site  
• Check trading rules automatically – ensure compliance with like-for-like and spatial requirements 
• Visualise outcomes clearly – map gains, losses, and neutral areas for easy interpretation 
• Generate professional reports – export ready-to-use outputs for planning and stakeholders 
• Support confident decision-making – move from calculation to clear, defensible conclusions

• Capture existing habitats with confidence – import and classify baseline data using UKHab standards 
• Validate inputs instantly – ensure habitat, condition, and mapping fields are correct before analysis 
• Calculate baseline units automatically – generate defensible biodiversity metrics in seconds 
• Standardise condition scoring – map site data to statutory metric values consistently 
• Lock the baseline for audit – freeze results to create a clear, compliant starting point 
• Build a reliable foundation – ensure all downstream BNG calculations are accurate and defensible 

• Model proposed habitats with precision – import and define post-development layouts aligned to UKHab 
• Validate design inputs instantly – check habitat types, condition targets, and key fields before calculation 
• Calculate post-development units automatically – see the biodiversity outcome of your scheme in seconds 
• Test habitat enhancements and creation – model condition uplift, time to target, and intervention types 
• Apply consistent metric rules – ensure outputs align with statutory biodiversity metric requirements 
• Lock the design for reporting – freeze post-development results for audit and submission 

• Understand your biodiversity outcome instantly – see net gain, losses, and overall performance at a glance 
• Break down results by habitat and parcel – identify where gains and risks occur across the site  
• Check trading rules automatically – ensure compliance with like-for-like and spatial requirements 
• Visualise outcomes clearly – map gains, losses, and neutral areas for easy interpretation 
• Generate professional reports – export ready-to-use outputs for planning and stakeholders 
• Support confident decision-making – move from calculation to clear, defensible conclusions

• Test multiple biodiversity strategies instantly – compare grassland, woodland, hedgerow and mixed scenarios side-by-side 
• See net gain before committing – understand uplift and compliance in real time 
• Check trading rules automatically – identify risks, warnings, and policy issues early 
• Explore cost vs outcome – balance habitat choice, delivery difficulty, and budget 
• Optimise habitat mix – find the most efficient way to achieve BNG targets 
• Make faster planning decisions – reduce redesign cycles and uncertainty

• Understand your biodiversity outcome instantly – see net gain, losses, and overall performance at a glance 
• Break down results by habitat and parcel – identify where gains, risks, and neutral areas occur across the site 
• Check trading rules automatically – flag like-for-like, compensation, and spatial issues before submission 
• Generate professional reporting outputs – export maps, parcel layers, summary tables, and HTML reports for stakeholders 
• Output to the Defra workbook – create workbook-ready data for statutory metric submission 
• Produce submission-ready evidence – package the key results, summaries, and supporting data needed for planning and compliance

• Meet planning requirements with confidence – deliver Biodiversity Net Gain in line with statutory rules 
• Reduce risk and rework – catch issues early before submission or redesign is needed 
• Save time across the workflow – move from data to decision in minutes, not days 
• Make better design decisions – understand the impact of habitat choices before committing 
• Ensure audit-ready outputs – produce clear, defensible evidence for planners and stakeholders 
• Align with Defra standards – generate submission-ready data that fits directly into the official workbook 
• Turn compliance into opportunity – unlock better outcomes for biodiversity, land value, and long-term strategy
