It is essential that the system enables us to track changes in natural capital and ecosystem services. The system should provide a GIS-based analytics model detailing habitats on the ground for both the baseline and subsequent changes. The analytics model is required to satisfy the requirements of the Biodiversity net gain legislation for baselining the impact SSEN has on its environment
