Initial Site Assessment

Understanding Your Landscape for Effective Rehydration

Implementation of landscape rehydration works can be at any scale; from paddock, to farm, to an entire catchment. Mulloon Consulting provides preliminary advice on the scale and scope of potential measures that may be suitable for your property, including preliminary advice on any regulatory requirements (if required).

How it works

We undertake an initial desktop assessment of your property using existing mapping, satellite imagery, digital data sources and/or drone data to ascertain the current condition of the site and extent of possible landscape rehydration and regeneration measures.  We consider the broader catchment as part of this initial assessment, i.e. we’re not constrained by property boundaries.

Our team will then visit the site to discuss your goals and explore the opportunities and constraints for landscape rehydration approaches on your property.

We will identify key management issues and provide advice on the best ways to achieve a functional landscape with respectful consideration of your goals and current enterprises.

Future actions can also be discussed along with consideration of potential improved land management practices that will contribute to positive outcomes. An important part of this review is gaining an understanding of your capacity to implement and manage landscape rehydration works into the future.

Next: Landscape Rehydration Detailed Designs

Following the initial site assessment, the next step is developing landscape rehydration detailed designs, where we conduct precise hydrological measurements, create construction-ready engineering drawings, and prepare site-specific plans that align with regulatory requirements and sustainable practices.
