Assessment of the tactic for founding businesses
In a recent development, Erik Schweickert (FDP) utilised artificial intelligence (AI) to search for a 10,000 square meter plot in Rhineland-Palatinate, successfully finding a motorway-connected plot within the state. However, the search results did not reveal any direct information about an AI-based settlement and land database for Rhineland-Palatinate focusing on current availability and construction-ready plots.
The documents found during the search discussed various topics such as image geolocalization benchmarks with AI models, biotechnology applications of AI in protein engineering, water diplomacy automation in Rhineland-Palatinate, and materials simulation software. None of these topics pertained to AI land-use or planning databases in the state.
Despite this, it is known that some German federal states and municipalities use geographic information systems (GIS) and AI tools to manage land registry, planning, and construction plot availability. Rhineland-Palatinate may have digital or AI-supported databases or portals for this, typically maintained by regional planning authorities or cadastral offices. However, no current published reference or official platform explicitly focusing on an AI-powered comprehensive settlement and land database highlighting construction-ready plots in Rhineland-Palatinate was identified from the search.
Tayfun Tok (Greens) defended the state's settlement strategy but admitted a lack of clarity about available areas. Minister of Economics Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU) emphasised the state's focus on innovation, but no specific initiatives were mentioned. Boris Weihrauch (SPD) stated that only two large plots in the state's database are ready for construction.
The plot found by Schweickert is located in Rhineland-Palatinate but is not yet ready for construction. For precise and up-to-date information, the Rhineland-Palatinate state government’s official digital infrastructure or spatial planning department websites would be the best source. They often provide online platforms with searchable land and construction plot data, sometimes enhanced by AI for better data integration and user experience. If such AI-based systems exist, they are not prominently documented in the publicly accessible scientific or news literature from August 2025 in the search results.

- The search results did not uncover an AI-powered comprehensive settlement and land database focusing on current availability and construction-ready plots in Rhineland-Palatinate, although some German states and municipalities employ geographic information systems (GIS) and AI tools for managing land registry, planning, and construction plot availability.
- Minister of Economics Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU) emphasised Rhineland-Palatinate's focus on innovation, yet none of the documents found during the search mentioned specific initiatives for an AI land-use or planning database in the state.
- Despite the lack of information regarding an AI-based settlement and land database for Rhineland-Palatinate, the Rhineland-Palatinate state government’s official digital infrastructure or spatial planning department websites might offer online platforms with searchable land and construction plot data, including AI-enhanced solutions for better data integration and user experience.
