The importance of site plans

Site plans and planning maps are an essential part of any planning application process and plans should never be submitted without the right maps for certain types of projects. People such as developers, builders, land planners, architects and local authorities will require site plans and planning maps for projects they are planning on undertaking. Site plans will need to be created for large scale building developments as well as projects where roads and rail links will be affected or are going to be extended. With the use of maps developers can create detailed plans that will highlight the areas that are going to be developed and the areas that will impacted upon during and after the development. These site plans will help planning authorities make more informed and educated decisions when it comes to approving planning applications.

Detailed site plans can be created using a range of mapping resources such as 3D data, digital elevation models, 3D software packages, 3D built terrain models and other 3D services. By utilising these and other mapping products planning maps can be developed along with site plans. This will ensure that people applying for planning permission have submitted all the necessary plans and planning maps in the first instance so the planning decision is not delayed.

Different types of planning maps are available and these are easily accessible to people who require them via the internet. By purchasing maps online people will have access to both site plans and location plans which can be bought individually or as bundle to save money. Simple site plans are available as well as editable planning maps that allow users to annotate the plans using quick and easy to use online tools. Most planning maps are inexpensive and by spending this small amount of money people can speed up the planning approval process rather than having to obtain site plans further down the line and hold up the project.
