Development of rural planning methods applying knowledge management theory

到目前为止，农村规划方案的制定只针对形式知识，而实际规划的制定在很大程度上依赖于隐性知识。本研究项目的目的是通过引入知识管理的概念和方法，建立一种新的农村规划方法。KM方法在农村规划领域的潜在适用性被认为是非常广泛的。预计KM可以应用于农村规划的各个方面。我们可以将本项目实施的研究问题主要按照知识类型划分为六类，即：(1)乡村区域规划知识；(2)地方政府的制度和政策知识；(3)乡村社区振兴知识；(4)地方官员知识；(5)当地居民知识；(6)利用信息通信技术构建知识库。

So far, scheme of rural planning has been developed to target only the formal knowledge though actual plan making has been largely dependent on the tacit knowledge. The aim of this research project is to establish a new methodology of rural planning by introducing the concepts and methods of knowledge management (KM). Potential applicability of KM methodology in the field of rural planning is thought to be very wide. It is expected that KM can be applied to various aspects of rural planning. We can classify the research issues that were implemented in this project into six groups mainly by the type of knowledge, that is,: (1) Knowledge of rural district planning, (2) Knowledge of institutions and policies taken by local governments, (3) Knowledge of rural community revitalization, (4) Knowledge of local officials, (5) Knowledge of local residents and (6) Building knowledge bases by Information and Communication Technology.
