N2 - While we support the idea that the research field of planning support systems should develop into a planning support science, we note that in the current debate the rapidly progressing digitization in spatial planning practice is insufficiently taken into account. In particular, digital plans and plan data are not mentioned in Geertman and Stillwell’s paper. This is likely caused by the fact that the authors narrowly focus on collaborative planning that tends to stress interactions rather than plans.
