LandHawk – Responsible Land Development Made Easier.

LandHawk Data Insights

Welcome to the LandHawk Data Insights series. Launched in October 2023, this series is designed to shine a spotlight on some of the data we provide within the LandHawk platform. These data are central to LandHawk’s ability to help you identify your land development projects faster, more accurately and at scale. Featured datasets so far include: telecommunications mast locations and EPCs.

telecommunications masts LOCATION DATA INSIGHTS

Read more about how our telecommunications data can help assess onshore wind energy projects or any development project where masts may intersect.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) DATA

A large and detailed dataset used by most of our customers, our EPC data will be of particular interest to renewables developers searching for land for battery storage projects.

Registers of Scotland INSPIRE Data

This data is the Scottish equivalent of the HM Land Registry which is integral to the LandHawk system. It has been added to SiteFinder to enable our users to undertake more complex analysis throughout Scotland.

ENVIRONMENTAL, HISTORIC & FLOOD DATA SCOTLAND

This data includes priority criteria for site suitability analysis in respect of Scottish Planning Policy. Search against the Registers of Scotland INSPIRE polygons to run more extensive site suitability analysis.

FOREST RECREATION & COASTAL EROSION ENGLAND

This data allows you to perform analysis against forest recreation and coastal erosion impact throughout mainland UK. Ideal for those working on development projects including housing, renewable energy sites or infrastructure projects across England.

SCOTTISH ENVIRONMENTAL DATA

These new data, covering essential environmental information will be invaluable to those looking to make faster, better-informed decisions on renewables projects in Scotland.

HYDROGRAPHY DATA FOR SCOTLAND, ENGLAND & WALES

Our Flood Risk data has now been segmented to cover surface, sea/coastal and river water for England, Scotland and Wales. The data helps you to understand the difference in risk between types of water.

PRIORITY HABITATS DATA FOR BIODIVERSITY NET GAIN

LandHawk’s data offering has been updated to include Priority Habitats data. This data is especially crucial as Priority Habitats form the basis of the 10% Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) planning requirement introduced on 12th February 2024.

National grid underground cables data

This new map layer provides the locations for National Grid’s underground cable network and is particularly useful for those planning renewables projects and developers looking to understand what’s available for connection prior to breaking ground.
