Mapping and Environmental Data for Property Developers and Investors
Property development decisions depend on having accurate information about a site and its surroundings. From initial site appraisal and land acquisition through to planning, design and construction, reliable mapping and environmental data can help developers identify opportunities, constraints and potential risks at an early stage.
CentremapsLive provides mapping, environmental reports and geospatial data for property developers and investors across Great Britain. By combining detailed Ordnance Survey mapping with aerial imagery, height data, environmental information, utility searches and 3D modelling, you can build a clearer picture of a site before committing significant time and resources to a project.
Whether you're assessing a single development opportunity or managing a portfolio of sites, our mapping and data services provide the information needed to support informed property and development decisions.



Drone Capture (UAV)
The use of drones with cameras and photogrammetry software to provide accurate geospatial intelligence about an area

Utility Reports
Underground utilities, from gas and oil pipelines and electricity cables to mains water supplier, sewers and fibre optic cables

Geosmart SuDSmart
Sustainable Drainage Reports (SuDS) for planning applications and property transactions
Geosmart EnviroSmart
Phase 1 Contaminated Land Surveys for planning applications, building regulations and property transactions

What mapping and data do property developers need?
Different stages of a development project require different types of information. CentremapsLive provides a range of datasets and reports that can be combined to support site appraisal, planning and development.
Site location and topography
Use OS MasterMap and Base Mapping to understand the location, buildings, roads, boundaries and surrounding features of a potential development site.
Site conditions and environmental constraints
Use Height Data, Aerial Imagery and Environmental Reports to investigate terrain, environmental risks, flood considerations and existing site conditions.
Land and property information
Use Land Registry Mapping, Administrative Mapping and other geographic datasets to understand land parcels, property and boundaries.
Infrastructure and utilities
Use Utility Reports to identify underground infrastructure that could affect development feasibility and design.
Visualisation and design
Use 3D Models, aerial data and detailed mapping to understand the existing built environment and communicate development proposals.
Mapping and data throughout the development process
Site appraisal
Before acquiring land, understand its location, surrounding development, access, terrain and potential environmental constraints.
Site appraisal
Investigate property boundaries, ownership information, environmental risks and infrastructure that could affect the viability of a site.
Planning and design
Use accurate mapping and geographic data as the foundation for planning applications, site design and development proposals.
Construction and development
Continue using mapping and site information to support engineering, infrastructure and construction decisions.
