Access the Gentian Online Platform to explore your biodiversity insights in minutes

The Gentian Online Platform (GOP) is designed to streamline the ordering and delivery of ecological site assessments. It allows users to draw or upload an Area of Interest (AOI), purchase instant habitat mapping surveys across the UK, or request detailed surveys anywhere in the world. All your purchased and pending surveys can be managed in one convenient location under My Projects.

1. Upload or draw your AOI: Use the ‘Request a Survey’ tool to define your area of interest. 
2. Choose your product: Select True Sight for an instant habitat survey (for UK locations). Select True Sage for more advanced or international surveys and True Oracle for a bespoke survey request.
3. View your results: Completed surveys are stored in ‘My Projects’ for easy access and download.

For True Sight, results are typically available in 5 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of your site.

For True Sage and True Oracle our team will contact you as soon as possible after your request. Once the project scope is agreed upon, survey results will be delivered through the platform within 10 working days.

Our habitat mapping is powered by advanced AI models trained on extensive ecological datasets. While these tools are not a substitute for full field surveys, they provide a reliable preliminary overview that helps save time and resources.

• True Sight identifies 10+ of the most common UK habitat types, as well as priority habitats.
• True Sage maps 30+ habitat types and is our most accurate survey product.
• True Oracle is a bespoke solution tailored to your project’s specific needs and is handled by our expert team.

Our surveys are conducted remotely using satellite imagery and AI, making them faster, more cost-effective, and available year-round.

Gentian’s data is ideal for scoping, early feasibility, and risk reduction. While it is not designed for direct submission as a compliant BNG report, it provides a strong foundation for subsequent ecological assessments required for planning approval.
