Groundsure Insight delivers detailed and accurate information using extensive and unique environmental and geological datasets as well as providing you with the highest resolution historic mapping available.

Groundsure’s Historic Land Use Database (HLUD) is the most accurate and reliable information available on the market. Our HLUD is derived from historic Ordnance Survey mapping dating back to the 1840s, scanned in at over 500dpi – setting a new industry standard.

This sharper imagery means you can see the information more clearly and benefit from greater confidence in your opinion. Each map is manually assessed by an in-house GIS consultant before we deliver it. The Full pack includes National Grid, County Series and Town Plans at scales: 1:10,000, 1:10,560, 1:2,500, 1:1,250, 1:1056 and 1:500.

The Geo Insight report provides all the geo-environmental data required to make informed decisions and identify potential ground stability problems that may affect ground investigation, foundation design or possible remediation options.

What does it cover?

• Historical Land Use information
• Environmental Permits, Incidents and Registers
• Hydrology and Hydrogeology data including abstractions, source protection zones (SPZ), now with SPZ within confined aquifers
• Basic flood data including EA Flood Zones, RoFRaS and groundwater
• Detailed flood mapping – Previously only available in the Flood Insight product
• Groundsure’s unique historical surface and underground workings database
• Groundsure’s mining and mineral extraction database
• Detailed BGS data – 1:10,000 and 1:50,000 scale geology
• BGS non-coal mining hazards data
• BGS BRITPITS current ground workings information
• BGS borehole records, hyperlinked to online BGS scans
• Estimated background soil chemistry information and radon levels.

We can now offer data from your Groundsure Insight reports in vector formats for use in GIS. This gives you the benefit of being able to analyse the information provided in a standard Groundsure Insight PDF report alongside other spatial data. Pricing depends on your area of interest so please contact us for a quote.

Report is available for England, Wales and Scotland. Data sources may differ in Scotland.

The Essentials report is collated and delivered in 5 working days* and is ideal for remote sites where only the main utility providers are likely to be present or projects where the aim is merely to check the availability of the main utilities (water/sewer, gas, electric and BT) e.g. in the planning stages of a new development.

*Due to the extensive nature of some searches, the number of utilities searched, and the response timescales imposed by some utility suppliers, it can happen that not all responses are received within the relevant timeframe. When this does occur, your report will be delivered with all available content as requested, and a final report will be delivered as soon as the outstanding information has been received.

Digitising Utilities data into CAD is one of those business-critical but time-consuming jobs that many could well do without, which is why you can opt for us to supply your utilities data as digitised CAD layers.

Data is collected from all relevant service providers and is digitised into CAD layers, supplied as a digital product to be used alongside your Utility Report PDF file. Prices will be quoted individually, but are competitive, and in many cases are cheaper than in-house CAD teams.

We have three different options for levels of detail/information for digitisation: Primary, Intermediated and Advanced. Please contact us for more information on what each includes.
