Plan with certainty. Reduce risk. Deliver with confidence.

Development today is shaped by increasing environmental scrutiny:

• Biodiversity Net Gain requirements 
• Heightened planning and legal risk 
• Complex, site-specific ecological constraints 
• Long-term monitoring and compliance obligations
   

At the same time, evidence is often fragmented:

• Baseline surveys that are hard to compare 
• PDFs and spreadsheets disconnected from spatial reality 
• Late-stage surprises that delay consent or increase cost
   

TerraViso is built to surface risk early — when it’s cheapest to fix.

TerraViso turns environmental complexity into clear, decision-ready insight:

• Shows what’s on the ground before designs are fixed 
• Quantifies impacts spatially, not just narratively 
• Supports biodiversity accounting with mapped evidence 
• Tracks delivery after consent — reducing future liability
   

All through outputs that planners, consultants, and project teams can align around.

1. Early constraint identification

Before layouts are locked in, TerraViso provides rapid visibility of environmental sensitivity.

Developers can:

• Identify higher-value habitats and constraint zones early 
• Understand spatial risk across large or linear sites 
• Compare alternative site options using consistent evidence 
• Focus survey effort where it matters most
   

Outcome:
Fewer redesigns, fewer surprises, and stronger early engagement with planning authorities.

2. Stronger planning submissions

TerraViso supports planning applications with clear, auditable spatial evidence.

Use it to:

• Produce consistent baseline habitat maps 
• Align proposals clearly with existing site conditions 
• Support Biodiversity Net Gain calculations 
• Provide visual evidence that’s easy for officers and committees to understand
   

This reduces ambiguity, builds trust, and speeds up decision-making.

3. Better negotiation and design optimisation

Planning is often a negotiation. TerraViso helps you respond quickly and credibly.

Test and demonstrate:

• Reduced footprint options 
• Habitat avoidance and buffering strategies 
• Onsite enhancement vs offsite provision scenarios 
• Trade-offs between design, cost, and biodiversity outcome
   

Clear maps and numbers help keep discussions focused on solutions — not disputes.

4. Reduced post-consent risk and liability

Consent is not the end of the story. Long-term obligations create real delivery and financial risk.

TerraViso supports:

• Spatially defined delivery areas for habitat creation 
• Measurable targets tied to mapped locations 
• Monitoring against baseline over time 
• Early identification of under-delivery or deviation
   

Result:
Lower enforcement risk, clearer reporting, and fewer costly surprises years after construction.

 Faster, more predictable consents

Clear evidence helps planning authorities assess applications with confidence — reducing delay and rework.

Lower environmental risk

Early insight avoids late-stage constraints and expensive redesigns.

Better control of long-term obligations

Mapped commitments and monitoring reduce uncertainty around BNG and condition compliance.
