Natural Resources Management

We offer all services related to natural resources management from the analyses of ecosystems and natural resources to the planning, management and protection of these resources. Based on the collected data, we establish management and development plans and design renaturation measures. Services also include the approval management in terms of environmental compliance with regard to planned construction projects.

Our experts possess the know-how to address our clients’ needs relevant to the topics of natural resources management, e.g. field surveys, management and development planning and approval management in terms of environmental compliance related to construction projects. Data analysis and the presentation of results in maps are performed using customized database applications and geographic information systems (GIS).
