LAND USE PLANNING

Land use planning and development through Resilience Explorer®
Design tomorrow's growth for tomorrow's risk.
Resilience Explorer® helps you understand how climate and natural hazard risk affects land, development, and communities. It provides a consistent evidence base to support zoning decisions, spatial planning, and development assessment.
The planning decisions you make about where communities grow, where infrastructure is built, and where development is appropriate will shape risk exposure for generations. Getting those calls right requires reliable, forward-looking information about where climate and natural hazard risks may increase and how development decisions influence future exposure.
Challenges facing Land Use Planning and Development
Making development decisions today that remain safe and defensible under future climate and natural hazard conditions
Balancing development pressure with the need to avoid increasing long-term community risk
Demonstrating that zoning and consent decisions are based on clear and credible evidence
REGULATORY CONTEXT
Planning policy now expects councils to direct growth away from high hazard risk and make risk-informed land use decisions. Resilience Explorer® helps you do both.
How Resilience Explorer® enables Asset and Infrastructure Planning
Understand where development may face hazard risk. See where climate and natural hazard risks may affect current and future development areas.
Support risk-informed zoning and spatial planning. Use hazard information to guide long-term growth decisions.
Assess development proposals in hazard-prone areas. Provide consistent risk information during development assessment.
Understand how development decisions influence future risk. See how planning choices affect long-term community exposure.
Support transparent planning decisions. Provide evidence that supports planning processes and community discussion.
KEY BENEFIT
Support land use decisions with clear, consistent climate and natural hazard risk evidence.
See how Resilience Explorer® is enabling tangible outcomes across these sectors.
