In urban planning, urban open space (also known as urban space or open space) is a space left within a building site that can connect to roads and provide public access. Openness means that it must be open to the public. It's outdoor, not indoor; and includes vegetation. The definition of open space is inclusive; garden, market, and town squares, urban parks, greenways, and highways are all open spaces.

In order to encourage private business and land developers to actively create open spaces, some governments have implemented "incentive open space" measures. This type of public space is known as privately-owned public space (POPS); it can be contrasted with public open space.
