Green Infrastructure Planning

http://www.greeninfrastructure.eu/index.php?section=006.001&page=38

UK Green Infrastructure planning site detailing process, continuum from green to gray and stakeholder role. GIS/ geography informed process.

"The aim of this Planning Guide is to provide a method by which those interested and involved in pushing forward the development of green infrastructure planning on the ground might develop their own green infrastructure plans.

The purpose of the guide is to facilitate the production of geographically-based green infrastructure plans. It is intended that this method might help to provide a more informed and systematic way to consider the competing priorities of green infrastructure within the spatial planning process.

The objective is also to provide a catalyst for discussion and for the exploration of methods of green infrastructure planning – it does not aim to provide a prescriptive methodology, but a flexible technique that can be moulded to fit ‘real world’ requirements."
