allocate: Allocate land use change spatially

In lulcc: Land Use Change Modelling in R

Description

Perform spatially explicit allocation of land use change using different models. Currently the function provides an implementation of the Change in Land Use and its Effects at Small regional extent (CLUE-S) model (Verburg et al., 2002) and an ordered procedure based on the algorithm described by Fuchs et al., (2013), modified to allow stochastic transitions.

Usage

allocate(model, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'CluesModel'
allocate(model, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'OrderedModel'
allocate(model, stochastic = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

model	an object inheriting from class Model
...	additional arguments for specific methods
stochastic	logical indicating whether the model should be run stochastically. Only used if model is an OrderedModel object

Value

An updated Model object.
