LAND360

Fera’s natural capital mapping and assessment service. Accurately maps, measures and models the biodiversity and carbon value of land, giving land-related stakeholders the data and evidence required to make informed decisions.

What is LAND360

LAND360 is Fera’s integrated mapping and assessment service, designed to give stakeholders in land management a comprehensive view and value of the natural capital supported by that land. By combining high-resolution mapping with robust ecological and carbon accounting methods, LAND360 identifies opportunities for habitat enhancement, biodiversity gain and carbon sequestration, while providing clear evidence to underpin access to both public and private funding streams.

What makes LAND360 different

LAND360 combines remote sensing, GIS, spatial data analysis, ecological surveys and economic analysis to give you a complete, science-led view of your land. Alongside the initial desk-based assessment options, our multidisciplinary team can map the natural capital opportunities and validate findings on the ground, giving results you can act on and evidence you can rely on.

Led by science

LAND360 provides tangible results through the interpretation of data and scientific insight, not estimates or assumptions.

Multidisciplinary team

From economists and ecologists to agronomists and remote sensing experts, we bring independent expertise across every discipline relevant to land management.

Proven track record

Our research teams have a long history of supporting government, policy makers and land managers in monitoring and evaluating agri-environment schemes.

Co-designed approach

Every LAND360 assessment is tailored to your land, your goals, objectives and your budget from large-scale baseline mapping to detailed scenario planning and economic appraisal.

LAND360 packages

We provide four packages designed to support farmers, landowners and land agents when making sustainable land use decisions. Start with a baseline and build as your needs develop.

LAND360 in action: Castle Howard Estate

Castle Howard Estate in Yorkshire worked with Fera's LAND360 team to map the biodiversity and carbon footprint of its 9,000-acre mixed-use estate covering farmland, woodland and parkland. The project created the natural capital baseline the Estate needed to plan its long-term land management future.
