The Digital Planning team in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) is planning to launch an online directory of service providers.
It has included the plan in those listed for next year as part of its round-up of activities over the past year.
It said it plans to launch the Digital Planning Directory in January with the Digital Task Force for Planning, a social enterprise focused on knowledge sharing for the public good.
The team described the directory as “a user-friendly online resource to discover digital planning service providers, from visualisation and mapping to plan-making, software solutions and community engagement”.
Once fully launched, it will be available free of charge.
Other plans include a scaling up of property technology projects and the continued development of a baseline data specification for planning applications.
