Land development is the process of converting raw land into a developed area for residential, commercial, industrial, or recreational purposes. This process typically involves a combination of planning, designing, financing, construction, and marketing efforts. Land development projects may include the creation of infrastructure such as roads, utilities, and public amenities, as well as the construction of buildings and other structures. This research area encompasses a wide range of topics related to land use planning, environmental impact assessment, zoning regulations, property rights, and real estate development. Researchers in this field study various aspects of land development to understand the economic, social, and environmental impacts of development projects and to identify best practices for sustainable and responsible land use.
