Advice, guidance and visualisation standards

Our Pre-Application Advice Service for Major Developments provides an opportunity for developers to discuss their proposals with everyone involved in the planning process.

Visualisation Standards for Wind Energy Developments helps you produce images that accurately support your applications. A Focal Length Template is also available.

We have developed a single frame viewer for the accurate visual impact assessment of panoramic images.

The Highland-wide Local Development Plan states that major developments and developments that are subject to an Environmental Impact Assessment will be expected to follow a robust project environmental management process. Guidance for this is offered in our Construction Environmental Management Process for Large Scale Projects.
