‘I need to find access points to the mast before the site visit and also to look up nearby premises that need to be notified of works and prepare electromagnetic field reports that help clients establish safe working practices around telecom apparatus.’
‘We use plans from MapServe on various aspects of our business such as to find out a site’s location, for planning applications and feasibility studies documents. We also create site plans, find out about height data and create services and utility plans.’
‘We use mapping for a wide range of tasks such as planning applications, checking planning constraints and planning precedents in a given area and certificates of lawfulness/lawful use, which we can use as evidence including aerial photos and mapping.’
‘I need to make sure that access to a construction site is appropriate and efficient, that it applies to all appropriate guidelines, building standards and local council guidelines. I also need to figure out how to provide access to existing highway networks.’
‘My business takes me across the country, and I survey a large range of landsites, so I need accurate mapping. The sites vary as well as the range of different plans that I need for example large residential estates, so I need maps covering up to 4000 ha.’
'I use MapServe®'s MasterMap® in black and white CAD format with the addition of 1m contour lines a lot. The contour lines help with the sites to determine if I need to create retaining walls or any other support mechanism and just to understand the ground profile.'
