Over recent years there has been a growing awareness about flooding, and the environmental impact on areas at risk. Some areas of the country are more at risk than others, but there is a general requirement to provide a flood risk for proposed developments, to satisfy planning and environmental requirements.

For many this may simply mean consulting the Environment Agency Flood Models armed with nothing more than a postcode or a street address. For larger projects, or developments in flood risk areas, a more detailed analysis of potential impact is required.

Axis Surveys Ltd. can assist engineers and architects to produce their flood risk assessment, by providing  topographical surveys, with levels related to Ordnance Datum, using GNSS equipment.
