Geosimulation aims at understanding the dynamics of complex human-driven spatial systems through the use of spatially explicit computer simulation. The approaches and tools for validating Geosimulation models are especially important for understanding their complex and spatially heterogeneous outcomes. The Ebook presents the recent conceptual and methodological advances achieved in the field. It should be very useful for scientists and graduate students working 606 $aGeography$xSimulation methods 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGeography$xSimulation methods. 676 $a910.285 701 $aMarceau$b Danielle J$0860097 701 $aBenenson$b Itzhak$0770653 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457263603321 996 $aAdvanced geosimulation models$91919104 997 $aUNINA
