What's in a Site Report

Turn the layers you've checked on the map into a single site report — planning, flood, heritage and environmental constraints summarised in one document, ready to share with a client or colleague.

Constraint Summary

A structured summary of every active layer for the site — Green Belt, flood zones, listed buildings, environmental designations and more — pulled straight from your current map view.

Site Location and Boundary

The report includes the searched location and, where drawn, the site boundary you've defined, so the context is clear alongside the constraint summary.

How to Generate a Site Report

Open the map on Maplify.
Search the site and enable the data layers relevant to your assessment.
Optionally draw the site boundary for a more precise report.
Select the Reports tool from the toolbar.
Generate and download or share the report.

Worked Example

A land agent prepares a report for a prospective buyer before marketing a site:

Green Belt, flood risk, heritage and ground risk layers are enabled and checked for the site.
A drawn boundary is added to define the exact parcel being marketed.
The generated report is attached to the marketing pack, giving buyers an upfront view of the key constraints before they enquire.

What's Included in a Report

Layer data	Every data layer switched on for the site at the time you generate the report.
Site boundary	Your drawn boundary, if one has been added, alongside the searched location.
Refresh	Reports are generated fresh from your current map view each time you run one.

Important Limitations

A site report reflects only the layers you have switched on — it is not an exhaustive constraints search.
This is a screening summary, not a substitute for formal Local Authority, environmental or coal mining searches.
Report accuracy depends on the underlying data layers, which carry their own limitations.

Site reports work well alongside Share a Map View, Block Plan & Map Export, the AI Planning Co-Pilot and the Planning Constraints Map.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a site report include?

A summary of the data layers active for a site — such as planning designations, flood risk, heritage constraints and environmental designations — compiled into a single document.

How long does it take to generate a report?

Reports are generated from the data already showing on your map, so it takes moments once you have the layers you want included switched on.

Can I share a generated report?

Yes — reports can be downloaded or shared with colleagues and clients as a standalone summary of a site's constraints.

Does a site report replace a formal due diligence search?

No. It is a useful screening summary, but formal searches (Local Authority, environmental, coal mining) and professional advice are still required for a transaction or planning application.

Is generating a site report free?

Basic report generation is included; check your account plan for any limits on frequency or advanced report features.
