Site development is one of the most challenging tasks in municipal planning. Smaller municipalities in particular face structural hurdles. There is a lack of resources, access to IT tools is limited and a lack of standards makes it difficult to make well-founded decisions. The digital guide is a modular, user-friendly and technically precise tool that closes this gap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The project combines the interdisciplinary know-how of the Institute for Spatial Development (IRAP) and the Institute for Information and Process Management (IPM). The centerpiece is a digitally supported guideline that systematically structures planning processes and enables automated analyses. Research, evaluation and variant development can thus be organized more efficiently. Municipalities receive a tool that improves planning quality, regardless of their size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
While inner-city development has so far concentrated primarily on residential and mixed zones, this project focuses specifically on workplace areas. The strategic development of such areas is crucial to the future viability of companies and locations, especially in times of scarce space. The digital guideline provides a unique solution in Switzerland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
An echo chamber was set up to guarantee practical application. This committee of experts from municipal administrations and planning offices contributes valuable expertise. At the first meeting on January 24, 2025 in St. Gallen, the participants discussed basic requirements and defined the next steps. The dialog between research and practice is thus established at an early stage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
The final software solution should be easy to use. It enables an objective and systematic evaluation of development scenarios according to relevant sustainability criteria, thereby promoting well-founded decisions in politics and administration. The creative design process is retained, supplemented by digital efficiency and reliable comparative values. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
The project was launched in June 2024 and will run until May 2026. It is intended as a contribution to modern, digitally supported spatial planning. The vision is a national competence platform that makes site development tangible, scalable and of high quality. <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
