March has been a whirlwind of activity here at LandTech, and we're eager to share the latest enhancements to our products with you. Let's explore the new features and updates that have made their way into LandInsight over the course of this month.
The Biodiversity layer in LandInsight is now live!
We're excited to share that LandInsight's Biodiversity layer is now up and running!
Starting February 2024, there's a law for property developers to adhere to – the Biodiversity Net Gain law. It applies to all new development projects, except for the smaller sites which will come under its purview in April.
To make navigating this new regulation easier for our LandTech users, we've introduced a brand-new Biodiversity layer in LandInsight. But that's not all – we've also crafted a blog post to guide you through the ins and outs of the Biodiversity Net Gain law and how to make the most of this new layer.
