First Steps in Canopy Cover Assessments: For All Working in the Built Environment at a Development Site Level |

This second guide in our two-part series focuses on how canopy cover can be calculated using data directly collected on site. Data presented on scaled site plans shows two scenarios of ‘Without development’ and ‘With development’ and modeled canopy spread which can then be compared to assess canopy cover impacts over coming decades.
