Urban planning is a technical and political process concerned with the use of land,
protection and use of the environment, public welfare, and the design of the
urban environment, including air, water, and the infrastructure passing into

networks.[1]
Urban Planning is also referred to as urban and regional, regional,
town, city, rural planning or some combination in various

itself with research and analysis, strategic thinking, architecture,
urban design,
public consultation, policy recommendations,
implementation and management.[2]The discipline is the broader category that includes many different sub-fields such as land-use planning, zoning, environmental planning, and transportation planning.
