EcoUplift (Aecom) Tool Update – June 2026

Please be advised of the latest functionality updates to the EcoUplift platform. These changes have been made based on useful feedback from users.

Key Update: Corridor Scenario Modelling You now have full control to edit, test, and compare multiple corridor routes:

• Baseline ‘Auto’ Tab: Initial successful network analyses are automatically saved to a dedicated ‘Auto’ tab.
• Custom Scenarios: Duplicate the original route to manually adjust and build alternative corridor versions.
• Instant Re-analysis: Edited corridors are automatically re-evaluated against your chosen measures and data layers, providing immediate feedback on manual interventions.
• Video Guide: A new tutorial walkthrough is available on the platform to demonstrate this functionality.

Expanded Data Layers & Mapping

• New Network Layers Added: Core Paths, Geomorphic Risk Buffers, Obstacles to Fish Migration, Recommended Riparian Corridors, Riparian Planting Opportunities (High), and WEF Projects.
• Global Datasets: Local Authority boundaries and Ancient Woodland data are now accessible across all maps, including Sites and Programmes.

Enhanced Configuration & Control

• Bulk Condition Adjustments: Apply condition changes across an entire site simultaneously to quickly generate high-level, uncertainty-based projections.
• Configurable Midpoints: Manage routing midpoints via your settings. The default limit is 3 to ensure optimal system performance; please contact us if your tenancy requires a higher limit.
• Adjustable Monetary Flows: Disable financial valuations for ecosystem services where monetary values are not applicable (e.g., biodiversity net gain).

Reporting & UI Improvements

• Asset Register: A new column clearly indicates if a change constitutes a net benefit, and new ‘Total’ rows have been added for rapid auditing.
• Performance: Faster processing for ‘Select All’ and ‘Copy’ actions, plus enhanced validation warnings for shapefile uploads to prevent errors.
