read moreThere are many environmental and technical factors that can influence the decision making process for a development project. An environmental feasibility study is a key part of the project initiation process and a critical factor in determining financial viability, risk potential and the sustainable future of the project. With extensive experience of developments across a range of sectors and industries, we understand the issues you may encounter and that much of a project's delivery success lies in the early stages of a development.

read moreEnvironmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an integral part of planning and development. It is a process by which the anticipated effects on the environment of a proposed development are measured to inform the decision making process. The EIA process can often be seen as complex and confusing, particularly for key stakeholders. However, if managed well it offers an opportunity to de-risk development and enhance reputation. At Atmos we understand the importance of a consentable development and our aim is to achieve a successful consent with the minimum of fuss that maximises commercial viability.

read moreDevelopment is a complex undertaking and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) provide vital tools in accurately answering such questions, increasing the understanding of complex project implications and supporting the decision making process. Atmos is at the forefront in providing robust GIS solutions that analyse, visualise, interrogate, and interpret data in a reliable manner. We provide our clients with the information and scenario modelling required to determine what is relevant and allow efficient assessment for the benefit of the project.

However, the identification of ecological constraints at an early stage in your project programme need not spell disaster for your development. From multi-million pound mixed use developments requiring ecological surveys and assessments, biodiversity guidance and public consultations, through to individual property owners needing support with a bat survey, our highly experienced team of in-house ecological experts are here to support you in realising the vision of your project.

This together with their complex flight patterns and nesting behaviours can, on the face of it, often present significant challenges for developments. The widely respected Atmos ornithology team has considerable experience of delivering commercially pragmatic and workable solutions where sensitive ornithological issues exist. We work in our clients interest to ensure the commercial needs of the project are balanced with the statutory requirements to ensure bird populations are protected.
