CalCom: Calculating the Attractiveness of Retail Clusters

Author of the model: Cécile Tannier (ThéMA, University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France)
Creation date: 2000
CalCom is a decision making tool designed for calculating the [hyp222; attractiveness] of retail clusters of a city for several types of retail outlets looking for a convenient settlement site. The [hyp184; model] has been calibrated for French towns which size is comprised between 100 000 and 1 000 000 of inhabitants.
CalCom is based on a fuzzy formalisation of the evaluation of the (...)

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 (...)

3D-IMA: Simulation of the Visual Impact of a Planning Project

Author of the model: Kamal SERRHINI
Creation date:
The goals of 3D-IMA:
simulation of visual impacts of a (punctual or linear) planning project on the landscape;
taking part in the multicriterion estimation process of the layouts or in the localisation of a development;
determination of spaces (landscapes, communities, residents) having priority with respect to the French grant called "1% landscape and development".
The principles of the model result from the Euclidean geometry applied (...)

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 (...)

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 (...)
