Abstract
Planning control of urban environments implies decisions which affect vast aggregates of population. Despite the extent of these consequences this paper presents a case for an initial approach to the problem of informing such decisions, which is disaggregated in the sense that it focuses on the behaviour of individuals. The fabric of a city which a planner helps to organize is no more than a context for behaviour, and the constraints and difficulties currently experienced by those operating in this context have been the objects of a research interest for some time. This paper summarizes this work and suggests possible extensions.
