A Viewshed Analysis is an assessment tool which determines the viewshed (the environment or context visible from a location) of your project. The analysis involves a process of identifying locations that are visible from one or more observer points. The analysis aids in understanding and identifying what locations a building can be seen from and if any views will be blocked as a result of a new development.
A Viewshed Analysis has the capacity to assess the following:
Any disruptions your project poses to important views from a specified location
If your project has sufficient privacy from various observer points
Specific and accurate locations for where your project can be seen from in the surrounding context
The most visible locations of your project for potential marketing and/or branding
Our team prides ourself on producing comprehensive Viewshed Analysis which can help you:

A Viewshed Analysis can help you:
A Viewshed Analysis involves using Geographic Information System (GIS) software. The software uses the elevation value of cells within a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to determine the viewshed or visibility to or from each cell. Our highly qualified and professional assessors will then use this information to generate your Viewshed Analysis, providing you with all the information you need about your project's viewshed. You can get in touch here to discuss your Viewshed Analysis today.
To get your Viewshed Analysis we will need some information about your project regarding its location, size and scale, as well as what you would like to achieve with your Viewshed Analysis. This will allow us to generate a fee free, no obligation quote.
