What We Offer

BIODIVERSITY UNIT VERIFICATION

We work with landowners, land managers and businesses to help them assess their baseline biodiversity units (BUs) and to evaluate their options for delivering BUs for sale to public and private sector clients. In England, we use the UK Habitat Classification (“UKHab”), developed by eCountability and partners to identify habitats and conduct condition assessments based on current guidance (Metric 2.0/ 3.0). As well as undertaking UKHab and habitat condition assessment surveys directly, eCountability can verify third party surveys and assessments, to assure trusted baselines and Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) outcomes, essential to support contracts with private or public sector sector buyers in the biodiversity credits market.

eCountability has been involved in development of the new British Standard for BNG and can assist clients to conform with it.

SITE MAPPING USING THE UK HABITAT CLASSIFICATION

Spatially precise and accurate UKHab maps from high resolution remote sensing imagery and other data sources to support ecological appraisal, Biodiversity Net Gain assessments, environmental assessments, land use planning and land management. Read more.
