Visual impact assessments

Pacific Infrastructure Group prepares visual impact assessments for development and infrastructure proposals. We examine landscape context, visibility and affected viewpoints, using visual evidence to assess effects and consider ways the design can respond.

Service overview

Understand how a proposal will be seen.

Visual effects depend on the setting, the people viewing it and the relationship between the proposal and its surroundings. Pacific brings those considerations into the assessment, identifying relevant viewpoints and preparing evidence to explain the potential change. We connect the findings with design responses so the project team and decision-makers can understand both the effects and the measures proposed to address them.

What we do

Our capabilities

Our work connects landscape context, viewpoints and visual evidence with the assessment of the proposal.

We examine the setting and characteristics relevant to the visual assessment. This establishes the context in which the proposal will be seen and the relationships that need to be considered.

We identify viewpoints and viewing conditions relevant to understanding the proposal’s effects. A clear selection basis helps the team understand what the visual evidence represents.

We prepare and interpret visual material, including photomontages where required, to communicate the proposed change. The evidence gives the assessment and design discussion a shared point of reference.

We assess measures that could reduce or respond to identified visual effects. Linking these considerations to the proposal helps the team evaluate adjustments and explain the preferred approach.

What you receive

Deliverables

Visual assessment outputs should make the proposed change, its context and the basis of the findings clear.

An account of the setting, viewpoints, potential visual effects and responses considered. It explains the basis of the assessment for the project team and decision-makers.
