Constraints Mapping
First Feasibility prepares professional GIS constraints mapping for solar farms, battery energy storage systems, renewable energy schemes, rural development and mixed-use sites across England, Scotland and Wales.
Prepared by an experienced planning and GIS professional, our constraints plans help identify the key planning, environmental, infrastructure and land-use considerations affecting a site.
What is Constraints Mapping?
Constraints mapping uses GIS analysis and publicly available datasets to show the main factors that may affect the development potential of land.
These plans can support early-stage site appraisal, planning strategy, land promotion, investor due diligence and consultant advice.
