Digital Utility Overview Plan:
Our Digital Utility Overview Plan service captures the information received from each utility company returned from our Utilities Report and delivers it on one plan either in layered Autodesk DWG format file or within a layered PDF document. Each utility company has its own line type and layer so that the user can filter the utility information that is of specific interest.
The Digital Utility Overview Plan presents all available asset information at the same scale on the same plan, providing the user with the ability to view all affected plant information relative to each other and to the specific location on the site. Using the Digital Utility Overview Plan service also ensures clearer presentation for clients and contractors and, of course, having less paperwork to carry around on site. This service is also useful for planners and designers who wish to have control of which utilities are displayed on their plans and when.
An order for a Digital Utility Overview Plan must be placed at the same time as a Utility Report and is only available on the 20 working day standard delivery Utility Report. At the point of order, simply select your background mapping (either large scale Ordnance Survey MasterMap or medium scale Ordnance Survey Vector Map Local) and the required format (layered PDF or AutoCAD DXF or DWG) and the completed Utility Overview Plan is delivered with the Utility Report.
The service requires a valid licence for the use of the chosen background mapping which currently must be purchased at the point of order.
Note: The asset information displayed on the Digital Utility Overview Plan is entirely dependent on the accuracy of the information delivered on the utility plans from the utility companies.

Testimonial
We require utilities information for planning applications that we do on behalf of our clients. Previously we used to write to each utility company individually and collate the information ourselves. We would also often do trial pits onsite just to be sure what was down beneath. It would take weeks to get the information. Now with the Envirocheck Utilities Report we simply place our order online and within 20 days we receive all the utility information collated from a single source, saving us valuable time.
