In recent years there has been a move towards seeking intelligent planning systems composed of 3D digital twins, building/city information modelling, realistic simulations of planning scenarios, automated and real-time tracking of the planning processes, and citizen consultation platforms. Planning it seems is destined to become smart, or at least smarter.
Robert Kitchins latest paper considers the progress and prospects of smart planning and its potential impacts on the planning system and its potential to produce more sustainable and socially just places. The analysis draws on four studies:
- one, that has sought to build 3D city information model for Dublin
- a set of interviews with planners about the prospects of smart planning
- charting the existing constellation of planning IT systems and associated data ecosystem
- and an assessment of how citizen-centric and participatory smart city systems are in practice.
Robert Michael Kitchin, Member of the Royal Irish Academy (MRIA), is an Irish geographer and academic. Since 2005, he has been Professor of Human Geography at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.
The event is for free. Please register for the lecture on the website of the Hospitalhof or via e-mail.
This public evening lecture is a part of the research workshop "Right to the City 4.0?", which can be attended optionally.
The event is organized in cooperation between: Interchange Forum for Reflecting on Intelligent Systems (IRIS), The International Center for Cultural and Technological Studies (IZKT) and The Center for Interdisciplinary Risk and Innovation Studies (ZIRIUS) at the University of Stuttgart.
