Forth Consulting

Forth Rivers Consulting is the consultancy trading arm of the Forth Rivers Trust. Embedded in our ethos is a commitment to the improvement of our rivers, wildlife and communities, delivered via expert ecological services; providing the best solutions for both our clients and the environment. Our work not only helps clients meet regulatory requirements but also contributes positively to broader environmental goals and community well-being. Our location in the Forth catchment and unique relationship with both Forth Rivers Trust and Forth District Salmon Fishery Board, coupled with our in-depth knowledge of the Forth basin, allows us to provide bespoke services at competitive rates. We are specialists in the provision of ecological clerk of works (ECoW), protected species surveys and mitigation, non-native invasive species control, and fish habitat and electrofishing surveys. Location data services that we provide revolt around data collection and collation. We perform scientific studies and data analyses, drone surveys for footage and photogrammetry including its processing, help with setting up GIS and public or fieldwork survey design, flood modelling including potential natural flood management implementations, storymapping and web apps, and the design and delivery of environmental education and training programmes.

Forth Rivers Trust

Forth Rivers Trust

The Forth Rivers Trust is dedicated to engaging people with the rivers and wildlife within the Forth catchment area while conserving these vital ecosystems for future generations. Based in Edinburgh, the Trust's efforts span over 3,000 km², covering 13 river catchments and numerous coastal burns. This area is home to about 25% of Scotland's population and a diverse range of wildlife. Their work includes educational initiatives, public awareness campaigns aimed at protecting and enhancing water habitats, and conservation projects ranging from erosion control, riparian tree planting and peatland restoration to fish barrier removal and in-stream habitat improvements. In all of its projects, location data plays a crucial role which is amplified by the organisation's collaborative nature. From fieldwork design and public data collection to a variety of analyses and visualisations used for public engagement, data sharing, and reporting and evidencing for action. Though already collaborating with a variety of organisations on both location data and beyond, the Trust is always looking for opportunities to work together with you!

National Records of Scotland

National Records of Scotland

National Records of Scotland (NRS) is a Non-Ministerial Department of the Scottish Government. Our purpose is to collect, preserve and produce information about Scotland's people and history and make it available to inform current and future generations. Our work underpins the fabric of Scottish society: telling the story of our nation. National Records of Scotland performs the registration and statistical functions of the Registrar General for Scotland and the archival functions of the Keeper of the Records of Scotland, including maintaining the archives as one of Scotland’s five National Collections. We administer the registration of life events such as births, deaths, marriages, civil partnerships, divorces and adoptions. We are also responsible for the statutes relating to the formalities of marriage and civil partnership and the conduct of civil marriage. We take the census of Scotland’s population every 10 years and prepare and publish regular demographic statistics. These statistics play a vital part in underpinning decision making from national to local level, and are a building block in the development of a large number of economic and social statistics.

Vahanomy Ltd

Vahanomy Ltd

At Vahanomy we believe that we can bring equality and transport justice through data-driven solutions that allow stakeholders to make date informed solutions. Autonomous cars (and affordable electric cars) will democratise transport and bring transport justice by offering mobility to everyone, irrespective of the barriers/inequalities people face. Electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles will result in a reduction of CO2e. Besides this, there are many reasons for the adoption of both technologies. The challenges that lie ahead of us before we give up fossil fuels, the current high cost of electric vehicles ownership, fears about the range and, inadequate charging infrastructure and later followed then with the driverless/autonomous vehicle the overwhelming fear of losing control of not having a steering wheel. Vahanomy will ​​provide data-driven​ ​​services to the economy of the future that will have Smart Cities enabled by​ ​ IoT​​ and electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles. Electric vehicles: Through our data-driven solution we are working on improving the charging infrastructure, parking solutions, optimising the power source that the electric car will be and making the best use of the owner infrastructure to optimise return on investment. ​ Smart City Solutions: We will provide Internet of Things (IoT) based solutions to work with local governments to deliver enhanced services to citizens, efficient delivery of local public services and to deliver transport justice. Autonomous vehicles: We are working on services based on autonomous vehicles and services for owners and fleet operators of autonomous vehicles, addressing the challenges they will face in the last few decametres (it's no longer the last mile solution!).
