A record of geographies in local plans

[hptrip]

Local plans contain data mapped to geographical areas. While useful, they can be difficult to extract as data. Would it be possible to build a central record of geographies in local plans? Would this be useful to users of data – and what would it look like?

hi @hptrip, struggling to find an email for the digital land team so thought i'd drop a message on here.

We (Deetu) have been doing a bit of research recently on Local Plans and gathered some data on how local authorities across the Midlands (70+ districts) publish their local plan information, i.e how many are in PDF's, who has interactive maps etc.

Thought it might be worth having a chat with the appropriate person given your plans for the below?
