Nviro

Ton Brouwer is an independent research expert and senior GIS and environmental model architect based in the Netherlands. Through Gispoint, he develops and provides solutions for understanding nitrogen emissions and deposition, helping government bodies, agricultural stakeholders and nature organisations assess the effects of policy and practical measures. Brouwer designed Nviro, a high-speed calculation model built to support detailed, interactive nitrogen scenario analysis.

Nviro combines an optimised calculation engine with GIS integration, maps and 3D visualisation. It enables users to examine emissions and deposition across farms, areas and nature sites, compare scenarios, and refine measures without repeatedly commissioning lengthy external calculations. The system is intended for provinces, ministries, consultancies, environmental services, nature organisations and area developers. Its applications include policy planning, permitting, nature assessments, emissions-reduction analysis, purchase programmes and measure optimisation. Users can view results through map layers and exportable data, supporting more targeted, evidence-based decisions. Gispoint describes Nviro as available as a complete system and offers information and demonstrations.
