Abstract
Sustainable land use planning is critical for steering new developments towards a sustainable society, given that numerous environmental and social issues have been brought on by rapid urbanization in the past decades worldwide. Starting with the concept of spatial optimization, this article introduces and explains the term sustainable land use planning, and reviews spatial optimization approaches for solving sustainable land use planning problems, including objectives and constraints, formulation and solutions of sustainable land use optimization problems. In addition, this article also discusses the challenges and opportunities of sustainable land use optimization, to guide future research directions in this field.
