Data Quality for Spatial Planning - An Ontological View

Space is not an arbitrarily reproducible good. Although we can intensify the use of land by adding different levels like tunnels, our capabilities to use space are limited. Therefore planning the use of space is an important task. Planning in the small scale can be done by try-and-error. I can, for example, change the arrangement of the furniture in my living room to see if the new arrangement suits me better. This is not possible for planning in public space for two major reasons:
