In April 2023, we will begin a project to redevelop the Active Places Ecosystem on new technologies. This exciting project will lead to improved data discovery and analysis in a modern mapping interface. It will also provide the foundation from which we can continue to build and enhance the data and tools provided by Active Places Power.
The redevelopment will be inclusive and transparent. In addition to regularly sharing information on the project and progress, we will seek to include users in the development process.
More information on the project can be found in this FAQ
Known Issue: As at 15th Dec. 2022, the SFC was updated to reflect Q3 2022 costs. Due to a technical issue, costs for Artificial Grass Pitches (if 3G) are parameterised at £999,999.00. This is lower than the published cost of £1,100,000.00. When working with this tool, please use the outputs with caution. We are hoping to resolve this issue in January 2023. Note this issues impacts only 3G Artificial Grass Pitches.
