What investors can do
- Explore every plot on an Investment Map, with its boundary, size, zoning, price, status, utilities, distances and incentives.
- Switch on layers for roads, rail, power, water and flood zones, and see the zone in 3D.
- Measure distance and area, draw a catchment, and type commands to filter the map.
- Run Site Selection: four questions about the project, then a ranked shortlist that explains each score.
- Ask BBM, a business assistant that reads a project file or a chat and answers from the land offer.
- Test the business case with investor tools: ROI and payback, setup cost, the tax and incentive stack, the licence pathway and infrastructure readiness.
- Save a shortlist, print a report, send a structured enquiry, or book a plot online.
What the organisation gets
