Welcome to Step 6 of the Find and Assess phase: Building Your Team.
If you're not yet monitoring your opportunities, head back to Guide: Monitoring Opportunities.
You've found your sites, assessed and shortlisted them, and you're keeping a close eye on developments. Now it's time to bring the right people in. Architects, planning consultants, surveyors, JV partners, and internal stakeholders all need visibility at the right moment, without endless email threads or outdated PDFs.
In this guide, we'll cover how to use Site Sharing to collaborate securely and keep everyone working from one live view.
1. Site Sharing
Site Sharing lets you securely share a saved site with anyone, while staying in control of what they can see and do. There's no need for recipients to download anything or manage attachments. They get a link to one live source of truth, and they don't need an existing LandInsight licence to access it.
You can share sites with:
Architects
Planning consultants
Surveyors
Joint-venture partners
Internal stakeholders outside your LandInsight team
Anyone you'd like to contribute to a site decision
If the person you're inviting isn't already a LandInsight user, they'll receive a link to sign up for a free licence so they can access the shared site.
How to share a site:
Select a saved site on the map, or click a new site to open the Assessor and hit Save
Once saved, the button will change to Share
Enter the recipient's email address
Assign a role (Contributor or Collaborator)
Click Share to confirm
The recipient will receive an email notification with a link to the site and access instructions.
Choosing the right role
Contributor
Contributors can upload and view their own files and comments only. Best for external consultants contributing specific documents or feedback, such as surveyors, planning consultants, or architects.
Collaborator
Collaborators can upload and view all files, comments, and activity on the site. Best for trusted partners or internal stakeholders who need full visibility, such as JV partners, project leads, or senior decision-makers.
💡 LandTech Tip: If you're unsure, start external stakeholders as Contributors. You can always upgrade permissions later, but keeping visibility controlled from the outset helps maintain clarity across the project.
