Analyse Land Use Patterns & Plan Development

Analyse land use patterns, evaluate location suitability, and model the spatial impact of planning decisions — all within a single platform. GOAT supports digital development planning and enables planners to run scenario analyses before committing to costly infrastructure changes.

Map Walking & Cycling Accessibility to Key Destinations

Assess how well residents can reach essential services — supermarkets, schools, healthcare, public transport stops — by foot, bicycle, or transit. GOAT's accessibility indicators help cities identify underserved areas and prioritise investments in walking, cycling, and public transport infrastructure.

Parking Demand Modelling

Calculate location-specific parking space requirements based on high-resolution sociodemographic data, public transport quality classes, car ownership rates, and land use context. GOAT's indicator-based approach — as demonstrated in the FLEKS project for the City of Munich — enables flexible, location-differentiated parking concepts that reduce construction costs while meeting actual demand.
