Zoning plans WMS is a WMS service with zoning plans in Norway.

The municipal plan must be the general steering document for the municipality. It must provide a framework for businesses' plans and measures, and plans for use and conservation of spaces in the municipality. All municipalities must have a municipal plan. A collective municipal plan is made up of both a community element with an action element and a spatial element. By adopting a municipal plan strategy, the municipality decides whether the municipality is to implement a full municipal plan revision of all elements, or whether just elements of the municipal plan are to be revised, and what this revision is to be based on. The municipal plan must safeguard municipal, regional and national objectives, interests and tasks, and it should include all important objectives and tasks in the municipality. It must be based on the municipal plan strategy and be based on guidelines and orders from governmental and regional authorities. Municipal subplans can be prepared for specific areas, themes or business areas. The municipal plan must have an action element which indicates how the plan is to be followed up over the next four years or more, and be revised annually (Regjeringen.no). The dataset is generated from the nationwide copy of municipal plans. This is kept updated with data from the original plan data at the municipalities. Updating takes place by means of periodic copying from the municipalities' data or synchronisation.

A zoning plan is a spatial plan map with associated provisions that determine use, multiple use and conservation in specific areas, and which forms a basis for clarification of which can building and construction measures can be implemented in the plan area. The municipal council must ensure that zoning plans are compiled in the areas of the municipality where this is required by law or by the municipal plant's spatial element, and where there is otherwise a need to secure proper plan clarification and implementation of building and construction measures, multiple use and conservation in relation to relevant private and public interests. Zoning plans are required for implementation of major building and construction measures and other measures that may have significant impact on the environment and the community. Zoning plans can be compiled as area zoning for a larger area or as detailed zoning for individual measures or smaller areas. The government may adopt a governmental zoning plan if so dictated by important governmental regional interests. Private individuals have the right to put forward suggestions for detailed zoning. The dataset is generated from the nationwide copy of zoning plans. This is kept updated with data from the original plan data at the municipalities. Updating takes place by means of periodic copying from the municipalities' data or synchronisation.
