Topographical Survey
A topographical survey is a type of survey that is used to produce a detailed map or plan of the natural and man-made features of a site. The purpose of a topographical survey is to provide accurate and up-to-date information about the shape, contours, and features of a site, including the location of buildings, roads, utilities, and other infrastructure.
A topographical survey typically involves the use of specialized surveying equipment, such as total stations and GPS receivers, to measure the position and elevation of features on the site. The survey may also include the use of other data sources, such as aerial photography and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data, to supplement the survey data.
The results of a topographical survey are presented in the form of a topographical map or plan, which is a detailed representation of the site that includes contour lines, spot heights, and other features. Topographical surveys are an important tool for a variety of applications, including land development, infrastructure planning, and environmental assessment.

Elite Ecology has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to undertaking Biodiversity Net Gain calculations, including experience with different metrics.
As part of the changes to the environment bill, biodiversity net gain will be a mandatory consideration for all development in England and will become an important part of planning applications in future.
The Biodiversity Metric is designed to provide ecologists, developers, planners and other interested parties with a means of assessing changes in biodiversity value (losses or gains) brought about by development or changes in land management. The metric is a habitat based approach to determining a proxy biodiversity value. The Biodiversity Net Gain or Loss is calculated using the difference between the pre-development and post development habitat data. It seeks to achieve a net gain of at least 10%.
We are licensed to carry out bio net gains to support your planning applications.
