Background information

Each planning consideration we work on passes through the stages of our design process, where we research and answer specific questions to help us collect more information.

Backlog

Who asked for 'Use class' data?
What is the driver for the request?
Which 2024 focus area does the request support?

Screen

What is the 'Use class' consideration?
Is there legislation that defines 'Use class'?
Who, in law, is responsible for the planning consideration or makes decisions about 'Use class'?
Which organisations do we think should publish the data?
Is the Use class a trigger?
Is the Use class something to consult during plan making?
Is there any Use class data already available?
Do we think the data should come from a single source?
Will a data standard be required?

Research

Do we understand the lifecycle of a Use class?
Do we understand how the data is created/produced?
Where will or should the data be used?
What other planning considerations does it interact with?
Who are the statutory consultees for Use class?
Other than the statutory consultees who are the primary users of Use class? How do we expect them to use Use class?
What are the planning needs for this data?
Who are the types of users who might benefit from having access to Use class data?
What are some potential uses of Use class data?
What's the value of adding Use class data to the platform?
From what we have learnt so far are there any risks to making Use class data available?
