A systematic method for generating land use patterns using stochastic rules and basic landscape characteristics: results for a Colombian hillside watershed

2003-05-01

Abstract excerpt

For some applications existing land use change models may be cumbersome to use because of substantial data requirements or tight integration with other simulation modules. This paper describes a spatially explicit stochastic methodology for simulating land use changes at a watershed level without the need to describe the complex relationships between biophysical, economic and human factors that affect actual land...
