GIS-Driven Ecological & Land-Use Analysis for Regenerative Development

See your land clearly—before you build.

The Haven Feasibility Study | Regenerative Lens Assessment is a comprehensive, GIS-driven feasibility and diagnostics package designed to remove uncertainty from regenerative land development, site planning, and infrastructure decision-making.

This service functions as your Rod in the Fog—revealing the true constraints, opportunities, and long-term capacity of your land before costly mistakes are made.

Produced through the collaborative efforts of Haven Permaculture under the TIAG Community, this assessment is built on 30+ years of federal, ecological, climate, and satellite datasets. It compresses what traditionally requires months—or years—of observation and multiple site visits into a decision-ready package delivered in weeks.

This is the professional foundation for regenerative design done right—before orchards are planted, swales are cut, roads are built, or structures are placed.

What This Is

A data-driven feasibility and land diagnostics service providing macro-level ecological intelligence to guide:

• Regenerative land design

• Site and infrastructure placement

• Agricultural and food-system planning

• Community-scale and multi-phase development

• Investment-grade feasibility validation

Each study is framed by front-end project intake and back-end professional interpretation to ensure all analysis is aligned with client goals, constraints, and intended outcomes.

Included Professional Engagement

Front-End Project Intake & Goal Alignment

A structured intake process to define objectives, constraints, priorities, scale, and long-term vision—ensuring all GIS analysis is purpose-driven and project-specific.

Back-End Professional Review (1 Hour)

A one-hour consultation to interpret findings, answer critical questions, and translate diagnostics into clear, actionable next steps for design, development, and phased implementation.

Core Deliverables

1. Landscape & Systems Intelligence Report

Macro-scale environmental and landform analysis, including:

• Topography, slope, aspect, and elevation modeling

• Watershed, drainage, and water-flow dynamics

• Solar exposure, shade patterns, and wind context (seasonal)

• Climate metrics: temperature, precipitation, frost, insolation

• Energy opportunity indicators (solar and regional renewables)

Purpose:
Identify constraints, opportunities, and optimal zones for water systems, access, infrastructure placement, and long-term resilience.

---

2. Ecological & Biodiversity Baseline

Site-specific ecological context using open-source, regional, and satellite-derived data, including:

• Species presence and historical biodiversity records

• Habitat connectivity and ecosystem health indicators

• Baseline conditions for regenerative improvement tracking

Purpose:
Ground project decisions in ecological reality, inform stewardship strategies, and establish measurable benchmarks for regeneration over time.

---

3. Regenerative Lens Synthesis Report

A unified, feasibility-grade document integrating all GIS outputs into clear, decision-ready intelligence.

Includes:

• Land health indicators and risk identification

• Regenerative opportunity mapping

• Strategic implications for food systems, water, energy, access, and development phasing

• Professional interpretation to inform downstream design, capital allocation, and implementation

Purpose:
Translate complex spatial and environmental data into decisive guidance—reducing risk, preventing misallocation of resources, and aligning projects with land capacity and long-term viability.

---

Additional Mapped Intelligence

• Soil & vegetation classification

• Microclimate and frost-zone identification

• Sector analysis: hazards, access, and existing assets

• Agricultural zoning & food-system suitability

• Dwelling & infrastructure placement optimization

• Subdivision viability & development constraints

All deliverables are provided in clear, readable formats, including actionable raw GIS files that certified professionals can directly leverage for design, permitting, and installation.

Real Value of the Haven Feasibility Study | Regenerative Lens Assessment

1. Risk Reduction Before Capital Commitment

Before earthworks, structures, or infrastructure investments, you receive data-backed intelligence that eliminates guesswork. This alone can prevent costly mistakes such as:

• Misplaced swales that fail to capture water

• Road or structure placement that causes erosion

• Orchard/silvopasture locations in frost pockets

• Improper access routes that require expensive rework

Cost Impact: Avoiding even one major design error often saves $5,000–$50,000+ in corrective costs.

---

2. Time Savings vs. Traditional Feasibility

Conventional land assessment typically requires:

• Multiple site visits across seasons

• Manual survey work

• Independent specialists for water, soils, climate, and energy

This timeline can span months to over a year, with consultant fees across disciplines.

RegenLens Pro Value:

• Condenses months of work into 6–8 weeks

• Combines all essential data layers under one service

• Eliminates repetitive visits and stakeholder scheduling

Time Impact: Saves 3–9+ months of design lead time.

---

3. Professional-Grade Outputs That Support Decision Making

You receive:

• GIS data layers usable for professional design

• Readily usable files for engineers, landscape architects, permaculture designers

• Actionable deliverables that reduce downstream design friction

Value to Designers & Contractors: Reduces design iteration cycles, speeds implementation, and improves coordination.

Estimated professional services saved:

• Civil/land survey cost: $3,000–$12,000+

• Microclimate and solar analysis: $1,500–$4,000+

• Ecological baseline reporting: $2,000–$8,000+

Total conservative specialty services cost if purchased separately: $6,500–$24,000+

---

4. Competitive Advantage in Deals & Investments

For land buyers, developers, and investors:

• Confidence in site potential

• Evidence-backed valuations for financial underwriting

• Clear constraints/opportunities for financing and permitting

This can materially influence:

• Purchase negotiations

• Loan approvals

• Grant applications

---

5. Strategic Design Leverage

Instead of iterative guess-and-check design:

• You know where water flows and stores

• You understand biodiversity context

• You can optimize placement of food systems, access, utilities, and buildings

Design Efficiency Gain: Designers can produce higher-fidelity plans faster, with fewer revisions.

---

6. Long-Term Regeneration Tracking

Baseline ecological data allows measurable tracking of improvement over time. This is critical for:

• Stewardship reports

• Ecological performance assessment

• Grant reporting and funding justification

Long-Term Value: Increases conservation credibility and resilience outcomes.
