Release Notes - Property Report Feature Improvements

New look Premium and Free PDF Reports

You can now see in Landchecker the new designs for the Premium and Free property reports. We updated the layout to convey a cleaner, more modern design with larger and better quality images of the subject property in context to the planning controls. We also enlarged the area for white labelling so that different size and shaped logos can be displayed clearly.

This update also includes a change to the content of the reports, previously if the subject property did not intersect a specific dataset we did not show that dataset in the report. This new update we show all datasets available and specify if the subject property is or is not within the bounds of that dataset.
