Development Management App
A structured capacity estimator for a specific site — homes, jobs, population, floorspace, and open space indicators — with clear assumptions and an exportable report.
What you can do with DMA
Rapid estimates
Generate a clear capacity estimate in minutes, using a structured wizard and template-based assumptions.
Test scenarios
Adjust inputs to see how capacity changes and explore which development typologies best fit a specific site.
Share results
Export a PDF report to share with stakeholders — for example viability and transport consultants — to support wider impact assessment and discussion.
How it works
A guided wizard turns your inputs and template assumptions into a clear estimate and report.
1. Define site
Draw and edit the site outline on a base map or manually specifiy the site area.
2. Apply assumptions
Choose from pre-defined or customised templates to define typology and mixes before running the estimate.
3. View estimates
Vview results instantly on screen and export a PDF report when you need to share or file the estimate.
Assumptions and verification
DMA is a decision-support tool. Outputs depend on the inputs and templates you choose, so treat results as indicative and validate assumptions for your site and jurisdiction. To protect the service from automated abuse, you may be asked to complete a verification check before running an estimate.
Frequently asked questions
Can DMA be used outside London?
Yes. DMA is is. a site-based capacity estimator that can be used anywhere, as long as the assumptions and templates are appropriate for your context. You can of course customise the templates for your specific use case.
How are the results calculated?
DMA combines your site inputs with selected templates to generate the estimate. The report shows the inputs and assumptions used, so the result can be reviewed and discussed.
Can I test different scenarios quickly?
Yes. You can change inputs and templates to see how the estimate shifts, making it easier to compare development typologies and capacity impacts.
Why do I need to complete verification?
Verification helps protect the service from automated abuse. You may be prompted to complete a check before running an estimate.
Can I share the results with others?
Yes. You can export a PDF report to share with relevant stakeholders. When you do, please include this credit note:
