Site Checks

Five checks for any site in England: give a postcode, draw the outline or upload a plan, and get the answer, a live map, the figures and a full report.

This preview site isn't connected to the Bozmaps analysis engine, so the checks can't run here. You can see real example runs of the industry tools, or ask a quick question.
