Abstract

An ideal "law machine" comprises a number of tools and technologies for data processing, storing, exchange, and retrieval. The paper identifies blasses of tools and sample tools that support legal enquiry where spatial-planning and environmental law has been taken as the exemplar. Not only the traditional means of text processing and retrieval (e.g., search, taxonomy building, text mark-up, etc.) but also geographic information systems (GIS) and related standards are examined. Furthermore, a number of accompanying tools help to better utilize and make sense of the retrieved legal information. Except GIS, which is particularly convenient for spatial-planning legislation, the identified classes of tools are not specific to any particular area of law.
