Innovation in Planning..
New York Paris
Dubai, Helsinki Singapore
It is Constant Innovation that stands out as the key stimulus for longevity in Economic Competitiveness.

Urban Issues: Social or Technological
▪ Till 2050 over 20 billion people will live in informal settlements in developing countries.
▪ Capital Baised Technical Change: Urban Poor have less access to, and opportunity for technological progress.
▪ Right to the City & Infrastructure.

We use more than there is available…
Ecological Footprint
The act of converting renewable resources into waste; faster than waste can be turned back into resources…is termed as Ecological overshoot.

Space Syntax
Concise defn of urban space.. Family of techniques for analysing cities as networks of space..
Set of techniques for correlating networks of space to socio-economic data..
…a set of theories abt how urban space networks relate to social…economic..& cognitive factors

Challenge in City Planning…
▪ We have built a sufficient number of unsuccessful urban areas..
▪ Its time to learn from these areas through identification and analysis of the spatial as well as social parameters..
▪ …and to apply this knowledge in Urban Planning practice, design guidelines, urban regeneration and architecture.

Space Syntax for SMART cities
▪ Sense the city.
▪ Map the area.
▪ Analyse the map
▪ Reach to the map
▪ Test out the socio-economical implications.
THINK SPACE BEFORE FORM!

Changing urban services and infrastructure
▪ Water and Energy infrastructures.. Social and Technical Patterns.
▪ Local autonomous networks and Grids..
▪ Public Health, safety and economic civilization: Regional Network building. Public Utilities.

Shares of Cars, Public transport, Walking & Cycling…
▪ Mode Shift in Centers: Liveable
▪ Safer, Less CO2 Emissions, air & noise pollution.
▪ Reduce Air travel, cars.. Increase Public transport, walking cycling

Decoupling Definitions…
▪ Resource Decoupling means reducing the rate of use of primary resources per unit of economic activity.
▪ Impact decoupling, by contrast requires increasing economic output while reducing negative environmental impacts.
Increase in wealth and Diminishing resource use& Environment Impact.
