The Land Use Decision Support (LUDS) tool will guide the user through an

automated process of
finding their area of interest,
selecting a land parcel or area and then
analysing this selection against a set of
pre-defined layers that coincide spatially with that location. Once the extraction analysis has been completed, the user
will have the option of either viewing the results in report format or generating a pre-rendered map.
Use this toolThese guidelines aim to answer key questions about biodiversity that

should be asked by a planner, environmental assessment practitioner and/or landowner embarking on a plan, project or activity,
whether urban, industrial, agricultural or recreational. These guidelines should also add value
to the deliberations of decision-makers on the environmental implications of development or
land-use changes.
