Yet, much of the practice of planning has remained paper-based. In recent years, a concerted effort to digitalise planning has occurred, shifting all aspects of planning (from strategic, to development, to enforcement) onto an amalgam of data infrastructures and systems. This digital turn is altering the day-to-day work of planners, shifting external body engagement, enabling wider access to information, raising questions about the public\u2019s proficiency and ability to engage, and enabling new data flows (Daniel &amp; Pettit, 2021; Willow &amp; Tewdwr-Jones, 2020). The change management introduced by the adoption of digitally-mediated planning is not straightforward and is <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">complicated by the multiplicity of sectors, stakeholders, data systems and flows intersecting through different stages of planning processes<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This session explores the impact of digitalisation on the field of planning (Potts, 2020; Datta, 2023).
