A walkover survey is a basic site survey which forms part of the site investigation process prior to works beginning. It involves the site and the surrounding area being ‘walked over’ as a means of obtaining and recording valuable information to support the desk study which should have been carried out in advance.

The walkover survey is useful in that it can highlight any ecological or topographical issues which may present constraints to the project, such as protected species, contamination, and so on. It should incorporate information gathered from local authorities, local residents and people who work in the vicinity of the site.

It is used to inform a structured report which is produced, and is useful in terms of identifying areas where further and potentially more intensive surveys may be necessary, but is only an initial assessment and is insufficient in terms of supporting a planning application.
