In recent years, there has been a move towards seeking intelligent planning systems consisting of 3D digital twins, building and city information modelling, realistic simulations of planning scenarios, automated and real-time tracking of the planning processes, and citizen consultation platforms. Planning it seems is destined to become smart, or at least smarter. This paper considers the progress and prospects of smart planning and its potential impacts on the planning system and its potential to produce more sustainable and socially just places. The analysis is based on four studies: one that has sought to build a 3D city information model for Dublin; a set of interviews with planners about the prospects for smart planning; charting the existing constellation of planning IT systems and associated data ecosystem; and an assessment of how citizen-centric and participatory smart city systems are in practice.
