exeGesIS developed a methodology for monitoring Green Infrastructure (GI) delivery based upon Natural England's existing Integrated Site Assessment methodology. This encompassed ecology, access, green roofs and other aspects of GI delivery.
Bristol City Council held a considerable amount of data relating to the assets on their public rights of way network, but some of this information was out of date. exeGesIS were asked to resurvey the network, preserving what existing information was still relevant, and updating where appropriate.
exeGesIS and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) undertook a 1,200 km survey of the Wales Coast Path prior to its opening. This was used to establish a baseline for the condition of the path and provide a resource for those responsible for its management. exeGesIS worked with NRW to establish the methodology for the survey.
As part of their annual maintenance scheme Powys County Council requires a condition survey carried out on a 5% sample of the Rights of Way network, in line with established BVPI (best value performance indicator) standards.
We created a national web-based system for crowd-sourcing and managing high-quality walking routes for the Ramblers. Routes are developed and checked by volunteer users, with a library of several thousand walking routes already created. These walks are published through the Ramblers website.
Ceredigion County Council required a condition survey carried out on a 5% sample of the Rights of Way network. exeGesIS undertook the survey, analysed the condition data and produced reports. The data was also imported into CAMS in order to make it accessible to all officers responsible for the network.
Monmouthshire CAMS Web is a joint project between exeGesIS and Monmouthshire Council to provide an online copy of their definitive map for members of their authority. The interactive web map is hosted by exeGesIS.
exeGesIS worked closely with Natural Resources Wales prior to the opening of the Wales Coast Path to provide a digital copy of the path for reference and release to the public in a variety of formats. The task required splitting and labelling approximately 1,500 km of path network supplied by NRW.
Flintshire County Council recruited exeGesIS to update their digital definitive map. The scenario was that the digital Definitive map hadn’t been updated for several years, while in that time a number of Legal Orders had come into force that changed the network, meaning their digital definitive map was out of date and inaccurate.
Devon County Council asked exeGesIS to calculate the gradients along their Rights of Way network. This would inform decisions about accessibility and the availability of the network for different users, and particularly targeting resources in order to improve accessibility.
