ABSTRACT

Urban growth prediction has increasingly incorporated AI-driven modeling approaches in planning practice, yet questions remain regarding effective model conditions and their role in decision-making. This study examines the application of a ConvLSTM-based AI model to identify performance-sensitive conditions and to clarify the division of roles between AI and planning practice in urban growth management. Using time-series spatial data from 2000 to 2020 in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, the model predicts urban growth for 2025 under varying spatial resolutions and input configurations. The results show that predictive performance improves at a 100×100 m resolution compared to 500×500 m, and when development constraints are explicitly included as input features. The findings suggest that AI captures latent spatial constraints to generate quantitatively grounded development potential, while planners retain a qualitative role in aligning outcomes with policy objectives and public acceptance. This study contributes to refining deep learning applications and proposes a complementary framework that integrates insights from the model into growth management.
