Pivvot's latest Siting updates make the app more flexible for more use cases--data centers, renewable energy, transportation, and wetland and stream mitigation banking siting.

Siting Update 

Pivvot is pleased to announce our latest updates to the Siting application. The new version of Siting makes prospecting for sites more flexible and applicable to a wider range of use cases. These enhancements are designed to provide users with greater versatility and efficiency in their site selection process. By expanding the application's capabilities, we are enabling our clients to address diverse project requirements and adapt to various industry needs more effectively. This update not only streamlines the prospecting process but also empowers users to make more informed decisions, ultimately leading to better project outcomes. 

More options in the proximity search 

Siting now supports searching for sites in proximity to a wider range of features, including data centers, fiber optic lines, transportation routes, wetlands, and water bodies, in addition to powerlines and substations. This expanded functionality allows for more comprehensive and targeted site searches, ensuring that you can find the most suitable locations based on a variety of critical factors. 

Choose up to 3 datasets for your proximity search. Need a site within a mile of a data center and a substation? Now you can search for a variety of combinations of parameters, making your site selection process even more precise and tailored to your specific needs.

Update to the AOI (Area of Interest) for your site search 

With Pivvot Siting, your search will be confined to areas in proximity to a line, point, or within a polygon. The search parameters will now all fall within the buffer around a point or line, or within a polygon. Simply click on the save icon to define and create your AOI. This targeted approach ensures that your site search is focused on the most relevant areas, enhancing the accuracy and speed of your results.
