Short answer

How can I use AI to check site development risks?

Your AI uses LandTech tools to pull specific environmental constraints and local planning policies for a property. You get a clear picture of what can and cannot be built on a site before you even visit it.

Where your site data lands.

Risk assessment outcomes.

The AI organizes its findings into these specific categories.

CONSTRAINTS

Environmental blockers

The AI identifies physical limitations like flood zones or protected habitats. You get a list of what physically restricts the land.

POLICY

Planning restrictions

The agent pulls local council rules and zoning laws. This tells you what the local government allows on the site.

RISKS

Development red flags

The AI flags overlapping constraints that make a project difficult. You see where environmental and policy issues collide.

HUMAN

Expert review needed

The AI highlights complex planning nuances that require a professional's eye. You decide which flags need a manual deep dive.

The workflow

What your AI does when the site address arrives.

The AI acts as a data researcher, pulling from LandTech to build your risk profile.

  1. Identify physical limits

    The agent looks up the specific environmental hurdles tied to the property coordinates.

    get_site_constraints

  2. Check local rules

    The AI queries the relevant local planning policies to see what the law says about the site.

    get_planning_policy

  3. Cross-reference data

    The agent compares the constraints against the policy to find conflicts.

    get_site_constraintsget_planning_policy

  4. Summarize findings

    The AI presents a clean breakdown of the most critical risks for your review.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI change planning permissions?

    No. The AI only reads and reports on existing constraints and policies.

  • 02

    Does the AI perform site visits?

    No. The AI only accesses digital LandTech data; it cannot physically inspect a property.

  • 03

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, as long as your client is MCP-compatible like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 04

    Does the AI decide if a project is viable?

    No. The AI provides the data and identifies risks, but the final decision stays with you.

  • 05

    Will the AI delete my LandTech data?

    No. The tools only allow the AI to read data, not modify or delete it.
