City Planning Labs (CPL) is a Technical Assistance program of the World Bank, which aims to enhance the technical and institutional capacity of municipal governments to produce, share, and utilize geospatial data for evidence-led urban planning. The foundation of CPL includes the establishment of a robust and innovative Municipal Spatial Data Infrastructure (MSDI) platform. An MSDI ensures the sustainability of geospatial innovations being introduced, and is being pioneered by partner cities in Indonesia.
Municipal Spatial Data Infrastructure (MSDI) is the platform that facilitates the organization, sharing and utilization of geospatial information to tackle the challenges to achieve sustainable urban development. It is the cornerstone of any strategy for cities aspiring to embrace digital transformation and for the long-term success of smart city initiatives.
Clear action plans for MSDI operationalization i.e., MSDI Roadmaps, have been developed by CPL partner cities using a four-pillar IPDS framework. IPDS pillars correspond to Institutional Arrangements (local regulations and data governance protocols), People (competency frameworks and skill development), Data (collection, processing, management, utilization, and data driven tools), and Systems (Integrated Data Platform i.e., Geoportal).
This comprehensive IPDS framework enables governance and regulatory innovations to go hand in hand with technological solutions, and also takes into account the importance of human resources to strengthen data foundations. The IPDS framework is agile, flexible, and scalable to cities with varying levels of capacity within Indonesia and globally.
