Case Study: Lovell achieves faster planning and cost savings with Ordnance Survey mapping (Promap)

Lovell - Customer Case Study

Lovell, a housing solutions specialist delivering land purchase, design, build and regeneration services, needed cost‑effective access to accurate, up‑to‑date and historic mapping to support planning, site identification and risk assessment. To meet this need Lovell in the Midlands adopted Promap, the online mapping service (via Landmark Information Group) that provides instant access to Ordnance Survey data and historic maps.

Promap delivered on‑demand access to OS MasterMap Topography, OS MasterMap Address Layer 2, OS Street View, OS VectorMap Local, aerial imagery and drawing/measuring tools, enabling rapid site identification, precise distance measurements for transport information and early detection of historical site risks. Using Promap shortened project timeframes, improved efficiency and delivered cost savings by reducing staff time spent accessing, analysing and preparing plans, while ensuring historic land‑use was considered early in the planning process.
