🌍 Why GIS is Essential in Urban Planning 🏙️ In urban planning, every decision matters. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are game-changers, enabling us to analyze data, visualize complex patterns, and plan cities that are both sustainable and resilient. Watch this video to learn how GIS is transforming the way we design the cities of the future. #UrbanPlanning #GIS #SmartCities #Sustainability #CityPlanning #InnovationInPlanning #UrbanDevelopment #FutureOfCities #GeospatialTechnology

A nice article by our resident GIS wizard at Urban Green extolling the benefits of Geographic Information Systems. For arboricultural surveys, the technology not only makes the job easier, but also adds accuracy- when you hand over a report, you want to know you're providing the finest detail you can, particularly where it comes to preserving 'high-value' trees (I'm using that as shorthand for the manifold important traits by which we are able to demonstrate their necessity). But I also can't overstate just how much these systems can benefit LPAs. Even in my relatively short experience in consultancy (and lots of research at university... I'm a planning policy nerd) I have met with such vast differences between different councils with regards to access to information. Some have fantastic interactive planning maps (Birmingham has a cracking map, for example). I'm sure it mainly comes down to resources, and with hard-pressed councils struggling, it can seem a but chicken-and-egg: it takes cash up front to fund a GIS system. But there are some relatively inexpensive options out there for creating things like planning maps, taking the pressure off- for tree officers it means no longer having to respond to individual requests regarding TPOs, as a simple example. Also potentially a way of creating more interactive systems to help councils keep on top of surveys and arboricultural works instead of finding themselves in a purely reactivate position... so many benefits, but instead of me waffling on, check the article- Charlie Lawler puts it better 🙂

🌍 The Power of Place Geographical Information Systems (GIS) aren’t just maps—they’re the key to solving real-world challenges! From urban planning and disaster management to climate research and sustainable development, GIS helps us visualise, analyse, and act on complex data tied to location. 🏙️ At the Centre for Geographical Analysis, we use GIS to: 📌 Uncover patterns and trends. 📌 Make data-driven decisions. 📌 Empower communities with spatial insights. Join us in leveraging the power of geography to build a better, smarter, and more connected world. 🌐 #GISday2024 #GIS #geographical #innovation #southafrica What’s your favourite way GIS makes a difference?

"Empowering cities through geospatial data analysis! 🌍✨ Urban planning meets innovation as we create sustainable, well-connected, and vibrant capitals of tomorrow. From mapping infrastructure to driving economic growth, GIS unlocks endless possibilities for smarter, greener cities. 🚀 #GeospatialData #UrbanPlanning #SmartCities #FutureCapital #GISInnovation"

The Power of Mapping in Today's world:🌎 "Mapping is at the heart of understanding our world. It transforms raw spatial data into actionable insights, supporting industries like urban planning, environmental management, and transportation. By leveraging tools like GIS, we can visualize and analyze geographic patterns, making informed decisions that drive progress." #Mapping #UrbanPlanning #EnvironmentalManagement #ManoubaSchoolOfEngineering

It's not just about where we are, but how we truly understand our surroundings. With GIS, every location tells a story. Each coordinate becomes more than just a point on a map—it transforms into valuable insight. From the tallest mountain peaks to the busiest city streets, GIS helps us see the deeper connections in the world around us. It's the tool that turns raw data into knowledge, guiding us in making informed decisions, solving problems, and unveiling the hidden potential of every place we encounter. Through GIS, location becomes a key to unlocking endless possibilities. #GIS #REMOTESENSING #Mapping #WORLD #Urban
