We provide comprehensive Land Quality Assessments by implementing the requirements of UK legisation and the techniques as recommended, of course, by offical contemporary UK guidance.

We use GPS based survey tools integrated with highly developed Geographical Information Systems (GIS). The advantages of these digital systems are that accurate, quality controlled and professionally presented survey reports in electronic and printed formats are possible. Please refer to our Land Quality Assurance pages for some GIS survey examples.
Our Land Quality Assessment service can be implemented in three ways:
- As a localised assessment within well defined boundaries;
- As supplemental to an existing conceptual model and environmental assessment;
- As a component to a client's current quality assured environmental investigation and / or risk assessment undertaking.
We can also carry out audits of third party assessments, survey data and analyses.
Where the conceptual model or end-points are not clear we can provide experienced facilitators to co-ordinate assured land quality assessments. For information about this service please click here: Land Quality Assurance.
