Abstract

This paper aims to give a survey of recent assessment methods in spatial planning. The attention is focused on three classes of evaluation methods, viz. regime analysis, the flag model and rough set analysis. The various methods are discussed and their strengths and weaknesses are mutually compared. The paper is concluded with some retrospective and prospective remarks.
