The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $250,000 Project Grant through its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Florida (UF) for the "CAREER: Generative Deep Learning for Post-Disaster Spatial Regeneration Planning" project. The objective of this 5-year project is to support research on integrating artificial intelligence (AI), specifically generative deep learning (GenAI), into spatial planning methodologies and processes. This research aims to promote economic vitality, housing affordability, and other planning objectives while ensuring responsible use of GenAI. The project will develop novel algorithms to balance multiple planning objectives, consider effects of connected areas, respond to incremental planning across scales, enable transactive planning, and avoid repeating past spatial disadvantages. It will also create augmented spatial datasets for public use and examine how planners perceive and interact with GenAI models to establish responsible deployment.
