 [[Image:planning stages.png|thumb|right|300px|The three planning stages in urban development]]Departing from a concrete goal or problem, the first step in finding a fitting solution in the urban space is to investigate possible solution directions, utilising the [[Concept level tools]].
-The plan level involves the urban planner formulating, with an additional layer of examination, possible solutions to the problem or challenge at hand. These possible solutions are analysed in the context of relevant characteristics and a screening or feasibility assessment for each may be conducted. Arising from the results of this assessment, possible solutions are discounted, compared and ‘weighed up’, and the most appropriate option available (or combination thereof) is selected (which should, ultimately, accord with the proper planning and sustainable development of the city). The Plan level tools developed within the project [http://www.vitruv-project.eu/ VITRUV] will support the urban planner in ensuring a holistic approach to his/her duties, by informing from him/her of the security (and connected safety) aspects.

-Within Securipedia [[Urban object|another structure]] for the urban environment is used. The structures are different because on Plan Level you need a classification of the targets in dependency of its usage. Here it is also important, that specific building types are listed up explicit. Embassies, for example, have the highest empirical frequency for a terror attack. Another reason for the difference is that for the database query it was necessary to use categories, which can be retrieved from TED. For Securipedia it’s more important to differentiate between the sizes of the targets.

 To provide measures for the probability of events and the extent of losses empirical data for terrorist attacks and crime are provided. This was realized using the Terrorist Event Database (TED)<ref>U. Siebold, J. Ziehm, I. Häring, ''Terror Event Database and Analysis Software'', in Future Security, 4th Security Research Conference, Karlsruhe, Germany, 2009</ref> and police recorded crime from the police force area of [http://www.westyorkshire.police.uk/ West Yorkshire Police]. This empirical data allows a risk assessment in dependency of the usage of the urban object. For differentiation of the target a classification of the urban area in dependency of the usage was carried out, as depicted in the figure below.

 With the empirical data in dependency of the target (e.g. an open space or an embassy) the user of the plan level tool is able to calculate the frequency of an event and the consequences. For terror events the consequences are shown with extent of losses per attack (injuries and fatalities) and for crime with monetary damage. Finally the empirical risk could be determined using these two empirical parameters.
 As a result on plan level end-user of the tool are able to detect hotspots at risk, mostly endangered districts and have a basis for security measures.
