Abstract

Semantic web technologies have the potential to significantly improve urban regulatory data access, integration and usability, with potentially large implications for planning practice. Ontologies are a cornerstone of the semantic web. In this paper, we describe OntoZoning, an ontology representing relationships between zoning types, land uses and programmes (more specific land uses) in Singapore. We link the ontology to geospatial data stored in a knowledge graph, which allows executing multi-domain queries on urban data. We demonstrate how such a semantic web based approach can improve access to and usability of land use regulation data, and in particular facilitate site selection and exploration. We also discuss the difficulty of defining some concepts in the land use regulation field, and how OntoZoning could be linked to a broader semantic-web based urban planning regulatory framework.

城市规划中土地使用法规的语义网方法:新加坡区域、土地使用和规划的OntoZoning本体
语义网技术具有显著改善城市监管数据访问、整合和可用性的潜力,对规划实践具有潜在的重大影响。本体是语义网的基石。在本文中,我们描述了OntoZoning,这是一个表示新加坡分区类型,土地用途和计划(更具体的土地用途)之间关系的本体。我们将本体与存储在知识图中的地理空间数据联系起来,从而允许对城市数据执行多域查询。我们展示了这种基于语义网的方法如何改善对土地使用监管数据的访问和可用性,特别是促进选址和探索。我们还讨论了在土地使用监管领域定义一些概念的困难,以及如何将OntoZoning与更广泛的基于语义网的城市规划监管框架联系起来。

期刊介绍: Journal of Urban Management (JUM) is the Official Journal of Zhejiang University and the Chinese Association of Urban Management, an international, peer-reviewed open access journal covering planning, administering, regulating, and governing urban complexity. JUM has its two-fold aims set to integrate the studies across fields in urban planning and management, as well as to provide a more holistic perspective on problem solving. 1) Explore innovative management skills for taming thorny problems that arise with global urbanization 2) Provide a platform to deal with urban affairs whose solutions must be looked at from an interdisciplinary perspective.
