Regional planningRegional planning deals with the efficient placement of land-use activities, infrastructure, and settlement growth across a larger area of land than an individual city or town. Regional planning is related to urban planning as it relates land use practices on a broader scale. It also includes formulating laws that will guide the efficient planning and management of such said regions. Regional planning can be comprehensive by covering various subjects, but it more often specifies a particular subject, which requires region-wide consideration.
Landscape architectureLandscape architecture is the design of outdoor areas, landmarks, and structures to achieve environmental, social-behavioural, or aesthetic outcomes.

Spatial planningSpatial planning mediates between the respective claims on space of the state, market, and community. In so doing, three different mechanisms of involving stakeholders, integrating sectoral policies and promoting development projects mark the three schools of transformative strategy formulation, innovation action and performance in spatial planning Spatial planning systems refer to the methods and approaches used by the public and private sector to influence the distribution of people and activities in spaces of various scales.
RegionalisationRegionalisation is the tendency to form decentralised regions. Regionalisation or land classification can be observed in various disciplines: In agriculture, see Agricultural Land Classification. In biogeography, see Biogeography#Biogeographic units. In ecology, see Ecological land classification. In geography, it has two ways: the process of delineating the Earth, its small areas or other units into regions and a state of such a delineation. In globalisation discourse, it represents a world that becomes less interconnected, with a stronger regional focus.
