Abstract

ABSTRACT Profound digitalization of public administration is gaining momentum and spatial planning is no exception. To increase the transparency of planning and its usefulness for public and private actors, planning authorities have integrated production and online distribution of digital plan data within existing planning practices and workflows. Many European countries have established public spatial planning databases. Denmark is one of the forerunners in that digitalization. Since 2006, all legal plans are registered in an open geodatabase including over 34,000 currently effective local development plans. Despite the obvious potential of such data to inform about planning practice and associated outcomes, research using these new data is rare, mainly focusing on technical or judicial aspects. Questions related to planning practice, efficiency, evaluation and design have hardly been looked into. In this paper, we provide a short overview of digital plan data in the Danish database as well as similar data in Nordic countries. We then discuss research perspectives regarding plan evaluation and planning practice and we argue that digital plans represent a new transdisciplinary type of intentionally explicit data source for analysis of land change processes.

新兴数字规划数据——规划实践与评估的新研究视角

公共管理的深度数字化正在兴起，空间规划也不例外。为了提高规划的透明度及其对公共和私人行为体的有用性，规划当局已将数字规划数据的制作和在线分发纳入现有的规划实践和工作流程。许多欧洲国家建立了公共空间规划数据库。丹麦是数字化的先行者之一。自2006年以来，所有合法的规划都在一个开放的地理数据库中登记，其中包括34,000多个目前有效的地方发展规划。尽管这些数据具有为规划实践和相关结果提供信息的明显潜力，但利用这些新数据进行的研究很少，主要集中在技术或司法方面。与规划实践、效率、评价和设计有关的问题几乎没有得到研究。在本文中，我们简要概述了丹麦数据库中的数字计划数据以及北欧国家的类似数据。然后，我们讨论了关于规划评估和规划实践的研究观点，我们认为数字规划代表了一种新的跨学科类型的有意明确的数据来源，用于分析土地变化过程。
