| Summary: | Regional planning is exposed to various criticisms today due to its unclear
position in the federal planning system, as well as incoherent methodology
among other inconsistencies. Nonetheless, despite those critics, the
importance and role of regional plans and/or strategies is indisputable,
primarily in creating a base for directing development processes. Nowadays,
regional planning is going through significant methodological changes as a
reflection of overall changes in the planning doctrine, new geopolitical
circumstances, and the effect of the "acceleration" of time. The modified
perception of space as a global and dynamic environment, and the intensive
application of advanced technologies in the planning process, cause the
need for refitted methods and techniques in regional planning. Those
updates will revive regional planning and make the decision-making process
more transparent. This paper will focus on new technologies that are in
application in some countries with advanced regional planning. The province
of British Columbia in Canada is one of those countries. The regional
district of Vancouver will be used to analyze the differences between
traditional and contemporary concepts in regional planning through the
application of advanced models in policy making. |
