Modèle de croissance urbaine : l’exemple de Rouen
Le modèle repose sur l’idée selon laquelle la croissance urbaine, mais aussi de nombreux autres processus géographiques, peuvent s’expliquer par des règles spatiales simples, formulées à partir de nos connaissances empiriques mais néanmoins explicatives de la dynamique spatiale car résultant de la pratique sociale.
Ce modèle, de type automate cellulaire, est construit sur un paradigme très général, qui déborde du cadre de la modélisation urbaine, celui de la concurrence spatiale entre (...)
SimNoise: Simulating the Impact of Noise Annoyance on Intra-urban Residential Migration
Authors of the model: Cécile Tannier and Hélène Houot (ThéMA, University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France)
Creation date: August 2003
The goal of the SimNoise model is to evaluate the impact of traffic noise on residential [hyp209; location dynamics]. It allows the calculation of the probability that the agents living in a given spatial unit will leave this location because of traffic noise.
The mathematical formalisation of the SimNoise model is of a probabilistic nature. The basis for (...)
CamDeus: Cellular Automata Models to Design Environmental and Urban Systems
Creation date: 2002
The CamDeus program is a software inspired by a coupling: raster GIS technology and cellular automata. It is dedicated to the simulation of urban dynamics and can be used to test scenarios of territorial development, according to the past states of the territories or to political planning. It is a stand-alone software with user-friendly interfaces, conceived to be handled by persons who do not necessarily totally master the mathematical principles of the [hyp184; models] (...)
Peuplement: Simulation of Size Differenciated Urban Growth
Author of the model: Jean-Luc BONNEFOY (University of Aix-Marseille, France)
Creation date:
initial: 2001
of this version: 2001
Starting from a pattern of cities of identical sizes, the model shows differentiated urban growth in a space where the flow of migrants is either constant or variable. The model is of interest because it shows the relative speed with which urban differentiation emerges with respect to two variables:
the role of the positions (rank) of the cities,
the wages. (...)

RamCO: An integrated assessment tool for sustainable coastal zone management
RamCo is the first prototype of an information system, which is to evolve eventually into a Generic Decision Support System for the Integrated Assessment of Sustainable Coastal Zone Management problems. The ultimate aim is to develop a system that will be applicable for the purpose of (1) rapid assessment, to (2) a wide range of coastal zone management problems, in (3) most of the coastal zones of the world. RamCo was financed by and is a product of the National Institute for Coastal and (...)
Read the following... SimLucia: climate change and dynamic land use planning in St. Lucia
A decision support system for the vulnerability assessment to climate change and dynamic land use planning in St. Lucia, West Indies
The long term objectives of this project are to develop a methodology and operational procedure applicable on the level of the individual coastal country or island
(1) to describe and analyse the impacts of climate change on their territory, their ecosystems, their social systems and their economic activities,
and (2) to provide instruments or tools to design, (...)
WadBOS: A policy support system for the Dutch Waddenzee
WadBOS is an information system offering support to policy makers actively involved in the Dutch Waddenzee. It features an integrated model representing the ecological and the economic functions of the sea.
The Wadden Sea is part of a coastal system extending from the North of the Netherlands into Northern Germany and Western Denmark. In the Netherlands, the sea is a protected nature reserve because of the important ecological functions that it fulfils. At the same time, the sea has (...)
Accessim (French version)
AccesSim est un outil pédagogique permettant de simuler les déplacements des individus. L’objectif de ce travail est de montrer que la répartition spatiale des services ou équipements est le plus souvent inégale, et que leur [hyp30; accessibilité] est différente selon les territoires.
AccesSim permet de tester et d’expérimenter, avec la simulation informatique, la fréquentation de boulangeries dans un contexte urbain.
Il simule en temps réel le comportement d’agents :
des agents (...)
