Modern Methods for Spatial Urban Planning

Summary/Abstract: Urban planning involves functions, scales, sectors, and stages and the main functions of urban planning can generally be classified into general administration, development control, plan making, and strategic planning. Currently, the focus is on creating smart cities with increased functionality and on sustainable regional urban systems, with a positive economic impact. Both decision makers involved in urban planning, as well as local and municipal councils, can use the application of modern 3D planning methods to obtain the overall image of urban development. Traditionally, the information management process for local urban projects has been unidirectional and manual. GIS provides planners, surveyors, and engineers with the tools they need to design and map the area of interest. We highlight the workflow applied in an urban area through using, defining or creating of 3D Basemap, Zoning Types, Overlay Types, Building Types, Space Use Types, Project Status Types, according with the general urban plan, focused on the GIS instruments.
