GIS analysis and mapping sit at the heart of how we approach spatial planning and understand the way projects fit within their physical and planning context. Mansergh Graham uses a full Geographic Information System (GIS) to manage, analyse and present large volumes of spatial information, supporting evidence-based decisions about where and how development should occur. By combining multiple data layers – such as topography, land use, zoning and overlays, visibility, infrastructure and ecological values – we identify constraints and opportunities, and clearly show how different land uses and patterns of development interact across a site or wider area. GIS underpins much of our landscape, natural character and visual assessment work, and we also provide stand-alone GIS services to support other consultants, including ecologists, engineers and resource management planners.
