Ecology Surveys in Shrewsbury

What is an Ecology Survey?

Our ecology surveys in Shrewsbury are studies of the plants and animals in a specific area. This includes their interactions with each other and their habitat. An ecology survey is carried out by qualified professionals, such as ourselves, to create an inventory of the living organisms and ecological features in a particular area. The purpose of an ecology survey is to understand the dynamics of the ecosystem and to identify any potential impacts, risks or constraints of a development on the landscape and species living within it. This is to assist developers and the local planning authority in establishing what the next steps are to mitigate the impact on the environment.

What type of Ecology Survey do I need?

There are a range of surveys available, each is suited to a different scenario. They assess the impact that a development project may have on the surrounding environment and go into varying depths of detail depending upon the type of survey that you have.
