We have an established GIS team providing high quality digitised maps and other visual graphics to complement field work as well as enabling our multi-disciplinary team to analyse and manipulate ecological data.

RSK Carter Ecological regularly undertake ecological mapping for projects ranging from small, internal bat building surveys for individual clients, to large, regional transport infrastructure projects for both commercial and non-commercial clients.



Project mapping - including extended Phase 1 habitat maps, protected species maps, NVC community maps, and ecological data search maps showing designated sites and species records;

Spatial overlay analysis and spatial statistics - enabling proximity analysis, buffer construction, habitat extent, and layer manipulation to more easily identify key features and habitats;

Efficient data management and in-house capabilities to digitise and geo-reference any spatial data relevant to the project including aerial photographs and client base maps;

Data presentation and visualisation, with outputs produced at various scales dependant on the project requirements; and

GIS training courses in an ecological context.

We use the leading GIS industry software packages MapInfo and ESRI enabling us to meet client needs.
