    Introduction

    Planning of today is a continuous process. Once the plan has been approved theimplementation process starts. Indicators are defined to measure objectives fulfillment. The

    predictions and projections made in the plan must be evaluated on regular basis and areview will be needed before the plan has lost its valid due to unforeseen development andother causes that were not able to foresee.

    The Plan proposes a method in which the plan is being compared to the actualdevelopment. A number of key drivers have been defined and indicators have beenarranged:

    For each of the Key Drivers there has been an attempt to define indicators(Scenario Characteristics) for evaluation purposes. Importantcharacteristics of these indicators are that they should be:

    easily understood by all stakeholders;

    related to the interests of one or more groups of stakeholders;

    measurable using immediately available data at the national and/or

    district level level;

    clearly related to visions and goal at national (and district) level(s);

    linked where possible to the three themes of economic, social andenvironmental sustainability.

    The indicators should be readily available, easily collected or estimated,and should not normally require special surveys or studies. Indicators are

    not data, rather they are models simplifying a complex subject to a fewnumbers which can be easily grasped and understood by policy makersand the general public. Classic indicators include the unemployment rate orGDP growth, numbers which are powerful and recognizable indicators ofthe performance of the economy.

    Below is an example on what Indicators (Scenario Characteristics) are assigned to

    Migration and Urbanization:

    The next step is to introduce a scoring system with five steps, where 1

    indicates a poor value and 5 is the best:

    The next step is to define the three scenarios;

    Alternative Red (worse/critical)In this scenario we present the land-use scenario if development continuesin an uncontrolled, ad.hoc/laissez-faire mode. It is a predictive scenario -extrapolation of currents trends and processes and business-as-usual;

    Alternative Yellow (fair/acceptable)In this scenario we present the land-use scenario if development continuesin a relatively managed and controlled way. It is an exploratory scenario construction alternative, plausible futures;

    Alternative Green (good/prosperous)In this scenario we present the land-use scenario if development continuesin a very controlled way. It is a normative scenario describing desiredfutures and the events that can lead to such futures.

    How is the Assessment for 2010 and how will i t be 2015?After defining the indicators, an assessment can be made on how thesituation can be characterized today (2010):

    Likewise, when the Plan is due for revision, in 2015, the method can be used to measurethe actual situation at that time. The idea is the that during monitoring, the characteristics ofthe key drivers can be analyzed, trends can be informed about and measures can be takento prevent an unwanted development.:

    And, as an example, arrows can be inserted to indicate which direction the trend has beenmoving from 1010 to 1015:

    :

    The next chapters presents the key drivers and indicators (ScenarioCharacteristics) of the three scenarios and some examples on theirimplications in a land use perspective. There are mapped presentationsattached to show the land use aspects of the three scenarios. Not all thekey drivers will have a visual and clear impact on land use. However, puttogether, the key drivers will inform about plausible future development.And the future is not going to move into either of the both extreme

    scenarios, most probably there will be a combination how key drivers willinfluence.

    Many of the key drivers have an impact on land use. Consequently the Plan tries to identify

    them and see how they affect the land use. After dissemination by stakeholders and thegeneral public during the Consultation Period in May, the draft Final Plan will presentrelevant (land use) directives, guidelines and planning standards for national sectorplanning, district development planning and urban development planning.

    Scenario Cost Assessment

    Initially, the costs for a Green Scenario realization will be high. Major infrastructureinvestments such as the building of the railway from Dar via Isaka to Kigali will needmajor loan funding (estimations of 4,5 to 2,5 billion dollars has been reported in themedia). Likewise, other investments like the development of a new airport outsideKigali, upgrading of roads, introduction of green district centre, distribution ofelectricity through a nationwide grid, etc. will be significant.

    However, greater investments in aGreen scenario will result in a more sustainablesociety in the long term as the benefits in cost and time reduction will implyfavorable gains in both environment and transport costs.

    Taking the railway as an example the following positive effects will be reached:

    A freight train will need about 12 hours to complete the 1,400 km journey from thecoast considerably quicker than the two-week truck journey on bad roads withmany roadblocks at present.

    At the moment, transport accounts for 40 % of the cost of the imported goods. A

    railway connection should cut that to a fifth. Average transport cost in developedcountries accounts for about 9% and about 17% for the least developed countries.

    Neighboring landlocked countries(RDC and Burundi)which have evenlonger distances toports will alsobenefit from arailway connectionfrom the Kigali tothe Sea forimportant traderoutes for ores such

    as tin and tungsten.

    History shows that a railway spurs development along its path opening up businessand trade opportunities. It can also facilitate exploitation of untapped naturalresources which provide the critical level of tonnage to justify the railway.

    The environmental effects will also be of importance replacing oil-consuming roadfreight with energy-optimized a more mode of long distances transport.

    In aRed Scenario, none of the important infrastructure investments will be realizedwithin the next 10 years and will of not any investment capital. In economic terms itis a saving in short term but the long term effect will be negative. The cost fortransport of goods for landlocked Rwanda will increase as oil becomes scarce, the

    The GIS Model

    MethodologySpatial Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is a proven method for land-useplanning purposes. MCDA can be described as a process that transforms and

    combines geographic data and value judgments (the decision makers preferences)to obtain information for decision making. In the planning work the focus has beento develop a nation wide GIS model, containing all land-uses accommodated inthree main land-use categories: urban, agriculture and environment.

    MCDA are often integrated in Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSS). An SDSSis an application that uses analytical methods and models to define alternatives, it isable to analyse their impact, and interpret and select the best option forimplementation. Three main stages in the process of land-use planning: (1) an

    evaluation of land suitability for each land-use type; (2) the optimization of thedifferent land-use areas; (3) the spatial allocation of land-uses.

    The GIS model is largely based on the Land-Use Conflict Identification Strategy(LUCIS) model. The LUCIS model does not have a specific focus on a certain typeof land-use planning, and is therefore particularly suitable for regional andcountrywide planning. It consists of three general models, describing the suitabilityof urban, agriculture, and environment components . Finally, these three land-usesare combined to identify conflicts.. Many of the goals, objectives, and sub-

    objectives that described the earlier mentioned land-use categories were adoptedfrom the original model. However, a significant number of them were dropped, andnew were created to suit the Rwandan situation.

    goals and objectives. The ModelBuilder can be seen as a graphic programmingenvironment within ArcGIS. All tools from the toolbox, which is a large set of geo-processing tools, can be used to create complex geographical analysis. Creatingcomplex models here has the advantage that analysis, which has to be done onregular basis, does not take much time once they are anchored in a model.

    Due to the graphic programming environment, the user does not needprogramming skills in order to create the models. Other major advantages are thatthey are easy to modify and share with other users. Firstly, suitability maps werecreated of all elements in the model. The suitability maps were then transformedinto preference maps by weighting them. In the next step the preference mapswere collapsed in three classes: low, medium and high preference. Finally, thepreference maps of the three land-use categories were combined, in order tovisualize conflict areas.

    The NLCs Orthophotos proved to be useful when acting as reference for thesuitability and preference maps. Despite all datasets were not available from sectorauthorities; the GIS model was executed to simplify the understanding.

    ExamplesIn the following pages examples are presented on the result of the modeling atnational level.

    Furthermore, there are some examples applied at District level which arerecommended to be found in the proposed concept for local level planning theIntegrated District Development Plan, see Chapter Housing and Urbanization:

    Next Step The Draft Final PlanDepending on the reactions by the stakeholders and general public during theConsultation Period, the Part II documentation will be revised and condensed into aFinal Plan. The Final Plan will present ONEland use development proposal for theplanning horizon of 2020. In order implement the proposed land use the Final Planwill also include the following:

    Mandatory regulations for land use that national sector authorities and localgovernment must pay respect to to. For example, in the Plan there will be a mapshowing Areas and Nodes of National Interest for Agriculture Production. It meansthat agriculture land use has the highest priority in the areas shown on the map andother land uses have to respect that. It also implies that the national sector plansand District Development Plans must show that they have observed the regulationand the reasons behind. Furthermore, the respective authorities must not proposeanything in their plans that will be in conflict with the national interest..

    Below is an example how an Area of National Interest can be shown in An(Integrated) District Development Plan:

    Guidelines for Sustainable Land Use Development . Below are examples onhow these guiding principles could look like are found in the Baseline Studies. Thepurpose is to inspire and guide sector planning and land use planning at Districtand urban levels:

    (Land use) Planning Standards. The standards are recommendation on spatialimplications on distribution of public services and utilities, for example the

    recommended distance between home and the nearest health center. The purposeof these standards, which have been agreed on by the custodian sector authority,are that they can be used to identify inequalities of public services and utilities incomparative analyses and to make relevant proposals to harmonize social,economic and environmental factors.

    It can also be geometric standards for example the right of way for a new nationalroad, which should be taken into consideration in land use plans, see below:

    There are more examples on proposed land use planning standards found in theBaseline studies.
