Transform how you measure and report on nature with scalable an nature intelligence & biodiversity metrics for long-term monitoring, powered by eDNA.
Speak to the teamNature underpins the resilience of every road, railway, reservoir and water network, and the scrutiny on how it is managed is climbing. Biodiversity Net Gain now carries a 30-year monitoring obligation, and for UK water the shift is concrete: AMP8 sets the most demanding biodiversity requirements the sector has faced, and chemistry data alone will not satisfy them.
Developers and utilities need evidence of real biological recovery, tracked over the long horizon from consent to operation.

The applications where nature evidence changes the outcome in the infrastructure & transport sector
Roads & rail EIAs
Habitat and protected-species baselines that satisfy consenting authorities and reduce Environmental Impact Assessment rework and objections.
Biodiversity Net Gain delivery
Baseline metric scores, habitat condition and distinctiveness to support BNG obligations and habitat management plans.
30 year monitoring
Auditable, always-on monitoring that aggregates condition across thousands of sites over the consent-to-operation horizon.
AMP8 nature-based solutions
eDNA captures the macroinvertebrate community to prove Nature based solution interventions are delivering real biological recovery across the catchment.
WFD alignment & WINEP
Replace hazardous field surveys with water and soil sampling, reducing safety risk in remote and sensitive locations.
Invasive and endangered species
eDNA reliably and efficiently finds hard-to-detect species in complex environments. Plus, NatureMetrics Intelligence Platform automatically flags species of interest, reducing the risk of you missing invasive and endangered species.
Species-level detection from water and soil, replacing hazardous field surveys and catching cryptic species traditional methods miss.
The portfolio dashboard and system of record that centralises nature data across thousands of sites.
Passive acoustic monitoring of birds and bats, central to wind consenting and to continuous early-warning signs
Comparable, standardised metrics from site to landscape, to benchmark across a global asset base and track recovery.
A 0-1 nature rik score per site to screen operating, development and legacy assets and priotitise where survey effort matters most.
The portfolio dashboard and system of record that centralises nature data across thousands of sites.
Case study
Delivering meaningful and lasting change for nature.
more species detected, including 59 inside turbines
reduction in vessel time
Meet national offshore wind targets and de-risk development for coverage of challenging locations.
18-month pilot surveying program using NatureMetrics eDNA-based solution, including sampling inside turbine zones and comparative analysis vs trawling.
Faster, richer, and more cost-effective data, massively reducing risk early in the lifecycle and accelerating EDF’s ability to meet its offshore wind targets.
