Time To Learn

Lithuania is not the only country where public contribution to urban planning and urban design processes is highly procedural and formalistic. Unidirectional and inflexible cooperation between participants of urban planning activities is common in various countries. Cross-purposes and conflict situations once boosted emergence of innovative and effective methods for decision making in urban planning processes in developed countries. Now it’s time to learn from these examples and creatively adopt them for purposes of long-term optimization of our national urban planning system. Paper describes some marginal activities in urban planning and design processes and disputes a growing impact of public participation in development of cities and urban regions.

Disciplinary Process

Urban Planning is a multi-disciplinary process. Social-economic, environmental and natural resources issues need to be considered to ensure urban sustainable development and to enhance the quality of human life. As a result, it is necessary to investigate different urban planning techniques and possible new ways to facilitate the urban planning process. In this context, ePlanning, an important section of eGovernment, emerged. In order to enhance the capability of ePlanning, different ePlanning systems have been developed for different planning tasks and purposes. However, the state of the art in ePlanning practice is mainly limited to text or 2D maps. 3D visualization is rare, especially interactive visualization for public participation. Based on the preliminary research in an EU-funded project (i.e. Virtual Environmental Planning Systems), this chapter presents an online 3D public participation system for urban development called OPPA 3D, and its potential benefit to Rosensteinviertel regeneration in Stuttgart.

Planning Processes

Changes in the attitude of local authorities towards the managerial processes of local governments have opened the area for cooperation of many actors in decision making processes. Taking into account the complexity of urban planning it is necessary to search for methods facilitating the participatory planning processes. Of potential use are internet tools based on GIS, supporting the engagement of the public in the processes of management and consolidation of local inhabitants. One of such tools is the geo-questionnaire developed within the project: Geoportal supporting public participation in urban planning (GEOPLAN). The aim of the article is to present these results of six pilot studies of e-consultations performed in Poznań and Łódź agglomerations (Poland). Subsequent sections of the article present characterization of Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS) tools and assessment of the possibilities of their use for spatial management on the basis of opinions of local inhabitants and local authorities. Attention is also paid to the legal and organizational challenges related to implementation of internet consultation processes in Poland. Solving these problems may lead to increased contribution of local society and greater effectiveness of decisions made in spatial management at local levels.

ResumenEl artículo explora nuevos métodos de participación que aprovechan las posibilidades de las herramientas web para implicar a la ciudadanía en los procesos de planificación urbana utilizando la metodología del estudio de caso a través de la revisión del Master Plan de Helsinki (Helsinki City Plan 2050). Las distintas herramientas utilizadas en cada fase, especialmente las basadas en Sistemas de Información Geográfica (PPGIS), han sido revisadas para evaluar su contribución al resultado del proceso e identificar las ventajas e inconvenientes que han planteado. Destaca el uso del cuestionario on-line con base cartográfica, una aplicación fácil de usar que presenta muchas posibilidades de análisis y visualización de datos y resultados, pero, sin embargo, los profesionales encuentran dificultades para incorporar los resultados en el documento final. Aspectos como la elección de la herramienta participativa, la preparación del cuestionario, la colaboración de los distintos agentes implicados y la devolución de resultados a la ciudadanía resultan claves para lograr el éxito del proceso.AbstractThe research explores new participation methods that use the potential of web tools to engage citizens in urban planning processes using the case study methodology through the Helsinki’s Master Plan Review (Helsinki City Plan 2050). Different participation tools used at every stage, particularly Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS), have been analyzed in order to assess its contribution towards the outcome of the process and identify the advantages and disadvantages raised. The main tool is an on-line map-based survey, an easy-to-use application that offers many possibilities of data analysis and visualization but, however, planners find it difficult to incorporate the results into the final document. The choice of the participatory tool, the preparation of the survey, the collaboration of all stakeholders and reporting sessions to citizens are key issues to achieving the success of the process.
