Augmented reality is gaining traction across many domains.One of these is participation within geo-spatial planning projects.The interactive and three-dimensional nature of augmented reality is suitably placed to cater for a higher quality of communication and information exchange in planning processes.Thus,this research provides an overview of the use of AR in planning processes,specifically regarding the participation aspect,through an open-access systematic literature review,for which the investigation identifies 35 articles concerning the current state-of-the-art of augmented reality in planning.Findings indicate the rather limited use of augmented reality in the overall planning process due to technical limitations.Nonetheless,it shows to be a useful technology where it allows for higher user engagement and a clearer understanding among users in planning projects.Additionally,in participation,the technology offers a motivational solution and creates an overall higher acceptance and awareness of the plan,making the participants more engaged and represented in the planning process.
