Singapore’s urban planning and management is cross-domain in nature and need to be assessed using multi-domain indicators — such as SDGs. However, urban planning processes are often confronted with data interoperability issues. In this paper, we demonstrate how a Semantic Web Technology-based approach combined with a SWOT analysis framework can be used to develop an architecture for automated multi-domain evaluations of SDG-related planning targets. This paper describes an automated process of storing heterogeneous data in a semantic data store, deriving planning metrics and integrating a SWOT framework for the multi-domain evaluation of on-site solar energy potential across plots in Singapore. Our goal is to form the basis for a more comprehensive planning support tool that is based on a reciprocal relationship between innovations in SWT and a versatile SWOT framework. The presented approach has many potential applications beyond the presented energy potential evaluation.
