FloodMetric
FloodMetric is our proprietary flood risk screening tool that delivers rapid early-stage insight for site feasibility. We combine national datasets with local knowledge to flag constraints and planning triggers fast.
Rapid screening that shapes strategy.
We use FloodMetric to review fluvial, tidal, surface water, groundwater, and historic event data in one place. You get a clear risk rating, planning implications, and a recommended path to approval.
It is the fastest way to understand whether a full FRA, modelling, or mitigation design is required.
Four steps from site to decision-ready insight.
-
Site data capture
We confirm boundaries, proposals, and constraints to focus the screening.
-
Risk scoring
We overlay national datasets and local intel to score flood exposure.
-
Constraint flags
We identify likely policy triggers, mitigation needs, and access issues.
-
Action plan
We issue a concise summary with recommended next steps and scope.
We turn screening into approvals.
- We deliver quick insight to guide land and planning decisions.
- We align the screening to NPPF and local policy triggers.
- We can progress straight into FRA and modelling if needed.
Where it fits
Ideal for site appraisal, portfolio screening, and early-stage planning strategy.
