Embedding sustainable development strategies in agent SORAN2
?
The document describes a model that integrates cellular automata and agent-based modeling to simulate land development patterns and evaluate sustainable development strategies. Geographic information systems data on land use, land price, and the environment are input to the model. Agents represent stakeholders like residents, governments, and investors. The agents' behaviors are defined based on sustainable development rules. The model simulates interactions between agents and the environment to examine how different stakeholders influence land development over time under various planning scenarios. The model is applied to simulating residential development planning in Guangzhou, China.
