SYDNEY, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Urban planning and land use allocation are critical to Australia’s future economic growth. Current processes are often complex, time-consuming, and inconsistent across different jurisdictions, as evidenced by the amount of media attention on housing affordability and land development issues. The Urban Copilot project, led by Archistar, UNSW, MapAI and PEXA Group, aims to change this using cutting-edge generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) technology.
Urban Copilot is an innovative GenAI product suite designed to help industry professionals interpret regulations and create developed applications that meet government requirements.

“Urban Copilot enables the deployment of GenAI in regulated and commercial environments to ensure efficiency and accuracy in urban planning, making life easier for governments, developers, and homeowners.” says Dr. Coorey.
The project will leverage existing work by partners UNSW and MapAI to bring trust and transparency to GenAI. Professor Chris Pettit, Director of the NSW City Futures Research Center, said: “Recognizing that there are some challenges to the reliability of other generative AI solutions, we are asking: How do we answer the question? , we’re developing a transparent GenAI that explains what data and processes were used in the process, referencing trusted sources of information and ensuring traceability of decisions. ”
