Technical Planning Services
Technical planning support that takes infrastructure projects from concept to construction. Our team delivers the technical insight needed to meet complex requirements and move your project forward.
Our technical planning support services incorporate sustainability, safety and technical design specifications to bring your vision to life, while meeting increasingly complex building requirements.
Our Technical Planning Services
Technical planning is the bridge between concept and construction. Our team delivers sustainable, safe, and precise design solutions that help infrastructure projects meet complex building requirements and planning conditions.
We support developers across Ireland and the UK with a proven track record in securing approvals for large-scale projects, including wireless telecom masts, solar farms, energy storage systems, grid infrastructure, wind turbines, and EV charging networks. Explore our technical planning services below to see how we support every stage of your project.
Our advanced GIS mapping technology and spatial analysis techniques identify land use designation, environmental and regulatory constraints. Incorporating ecological and environmental assessment data early highlights crucial factors such as conservation, flood zones and other development restrictions, helping to guide decision making for optimised results.
Technical site surveys save time and resources by providing more accurate and complete data with minimal disruption or safety risks. We use cutting-edge technologies that produce precise measurements and can cover large areas and complex structures quickly. We use drones, centimetre-accurate GPS, full-frame cameras, and laser distometers to conduct environmental surveys and site surveys, covering feasibility studies, photomontages, utility lines, boundaries, existing infrastructure, Line of Sight, Panoramic Aerial (PANS), and highways.
Visualisation is crucial to improve communication and understanding when presenting ideas and planning application drawings to clients and stakeholders. We use AutoCAD extensively for site location maps, site layout plans, elevation drawings and equipment details to meet planning application standards. We also produce bespoke infrastructure layout and elevation drawings in-house for large-scale utility projects.
Designed to predict the visual impact of a development and identify any sensitive visual receptors in a zone of visual influence, photomontages and accompanying wireframes are presented to Planning Authorities and other Public Bodies for review. Our process starts with a planning designations map to identify visual receptors. This is overlaid with a ZTV, where selected viewpoints are then photographed. We generate 3D models from 2D AutoCAD drawings for the photomontages using Wireframes produced with bare earth topographical data to present accurate visualisations.
An essential tool for planning constraints analysis, 3D modelling is crucial for engaging Planning Authorities and communities during pre-application and consultation stages. We have developed 3D models from 2D AutoCAD drawings for large-scale projects like wind and solar farms, depicting landscapes with details like roads, trees and buildings to demonstrate the structure accurately in its surroundings. Used to address planning issues such as glint and glare effects, we use various data sources and advanced technologies to create interactive 3D models for easy visualization of proposed developments.
