Context and Background: Urban planning is the main process of urban development that includes different areas and aspects. Among these aspects is the acquisition and processing of geospatial data. This is why urban agencies have chosen to have a geoweb (Geoportal) solution for planning documents, which is the starting point of the dematerialization process of their services rendered. Goal and Objectives: In this study, we contribute to the urban planning development by a geoportal establishment for town planning documents. It is a computer prototype allowing firstly the visualization of urban planning documents, to carry out the various requests (measurement of distance, area and location). It facilitates the various studies such as urbanization, industrialization, environmental impacts, and consequently have a precise vision on the availability of land. Methodology: We have started our methodology by the data collection. The next phase was the spatial database conception and its integration into a cartographic server; and finally the development and publication of our Geoportal. Results: This study leads us to develop the geoportal of the urban planning documents relating to the territorial jurisdiction of the Taroudannt-Tiznit-Tata urban agency. which is considered as a prototype allow: • Structuring a Planning Document Processing method; • Creation of the first spatial database of AUTTT planning documents; • Publication of the Geoportal of urban planning documents to the public.

The reduction of untouched areas and the increase in residential, agricultural and industrial areas have gained speed in recent decades. As a result of the changes, one can often observe the disappearance of landmarks that had been connected to production, habitation and transportation. The first step for the preservation of landmarks is their identification and inventorization. In the ordinary sense of the word, ‘landmarks’ mean the important landscape heritage of national history and culture, which need to be identified, protected and preserved for future generations. The purpose of the TÉKA project was to compile a landmark cadastral register that will contribute to the preservation of landscape-related and cultural heritage in Hungary. The landmark cadastral is a Wikipedia-like GIS-based web site. One of the novelties of the TÉKA database is that the data obtained from various sources are gathered in a common, online GIS and integrated into a uniform meta database. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
