Where the figures come from

Applications and decisions come from Bristol City Council’s public planning map, and from Bath and North East Somerset Council’s open planning data. South Gloucestershire, North Somerset, Somerset and Wiltshire are not covered yet. We count each area as a circle round its middle, the same as on its MeBabber page. Some dates are estimated from the application number, and we never show applicants’ names.
