What is an Ecology Survey?
Our ecology surveys in Hampshire help to assess both animals and plants in a specific area. This includes their interactions with each other and their habitat. Ecology surveys in Hampshire are often undertaken to create an inventory of all living organisms and ecological features in an area. The purpose of having an ecology survey is to help understand the dynamics of the ecosystem and identify potential impacts, constraints and risks of potential developments on the landscape and any species living within it. A number of these ecology surveys are used to assist local planning authorities and developers in establishing what the next steps are to mitigate the impact on the surrounding environment. Therefore they are often requested as part of the planning process.
