Planning portal - summary
• The Planning Portal aims to provide a web service to support physical planning, infrastructure planning and planning decisions relating to the location of buildings and establishments.
• It will allow companies, local, regional and national authorities, organizations and the general public to search for, look at and download all geographic information that, in principle, is needed for planning.
