Landmark Information Group and Barbour ABI unveil new Planning API to accelerate smarter, data-driven development

Experts in land and property data, Landmark Information Group, and construction intelligence market leaders, Barbour ABI, are today announcing a leap forward for the geospatial planning market with the launch of Landmark’s Planning API powered by Barbour ABI data.

Landmark’s Planning API enables professionals in the property and planning sectors to confidently automate processes, such as planning alerts to flag opportunities and risks at all stages of the planning process. It provides a quality data set to guarantee land and property professionals are well informed to support their clients, speeding up due diligence.

Combining robust data collection and quality assurance with a modern API’s capability empowers users with a speedy and consistent method of accessing data-driven planning application insights to support any stage of the land development and property life cycle.

As the Government seeks to speed up planning processes as it drives to deliver on its promises to build more homes and critical infrastructure projects, property professionals need the tools to stay ahead of the curve. Landmark’s Planning API is a vital step for the market to achieve its national ambitions for building and developing.

The key benefits of Landmark’s Planning API include:

  • Access to high-quality, richer data– Landmark’s planning API provides access to 19 unique attributes from trusted processes in geospatial and project information, with planning data going back to 1997, the API going back to 2017, and all updated daily.
  • Flexibility to integrate with user needs– fully interoperable into customers’ existing GIS systems and ready to integrate into user workflows with no new skills, tools or platforms required.
  • High searchability– designed with flexibility in mind, users can efficiently filter through the data based on planning application size, cost and industry type.
  • Full technical support– our defined onboarding process consisting of demos, documentation and technical 1-2-1s makes onboarding simple, freeing up land and property professionals to deliver greater value to their clients.

Josh Rains, Managing Director, Landmark Geodata reflects on the launch: “This Planning API represents a significant step forward in how property and planning professionals’ access and use data. By delivering richer, high-quality insights directly into existing workflows, we’re enabling faster, smarter decision-making at every stage of the development process.

As the UK accelerates its efforts to meet housing and infrastructure targets, this data accessibility will be instrumental in helping developers, planners, and consultants stay ahead of the curve with data they can trust.”

 

David Buckley, Managing Director, Barbour ABI comments “We are delighted to launch this partnership with Landmark at a time when planning and construction has never been more front and centre of the UK growth agenda. Barbour ABI‘s pedigree project intelligence combined with Landmark’s brilliance in geospatial technology unlocks a winning combination for clients”
