Land Insight’s Planning System Hack

Join us for a weekend of problem solving using planning applications. Come along to meet people and find ways to use planning applications to solve important problems. Oh, and win big cash prizes!

This event is brought to you along with our partners: Future Cities Catapult and sponsored by Future Property Tech. More sponsors tbc.

Who is the event for?

This event is for problem solvers whether they work in the built environment professions, are keen to meet people with an interest in improving the planning system, or if they just want access to a brand new dataset with over 10 million records containing multiple uses across many sectors.

If you have ever thought that planning applications can help you or your work, this event is for you! If you ever wanted to have first mover advantage on a brand new dataset, this is for you! If you want to help tackle social and environmental problems, this event is definately for you!

What is the hack all about?

Planning applications have many uses by built environment professionals, but until now have been too expensive to easily access, aggregate, map and draw macro data from – until now.

For the first time ever, Land Insight has produced an API for planning applications so they can be accessed easily from a single source.

Challenges for the program:

• Environmental uses
• Social/ Civic Uses
• Best business case
• Sponsors challenges

The rest is down to you – how would you use them?
