landscape.files: Landscape Files

Description Details

Description

The landscape files are optional, and only are needed if a specific landscape configuration is desired. In this case, there should be a file for each environmental layer in the landscape (with each file name matching an env.lbl field in the Environmental_layers file plus an _0.csv, e.g., for landcover, the file name would be landcover_0.csv). Within each file the values for the environmental layer should be present in comma-separated format, with the number of rows equaling the number of columns equaling the landscape extent specified in the Initial_conditions file. There should be no column or row headers.

Details

During the model run, if there is environmental change, new landscapes can be generated. These will have a number appended after the file name, and the numbers will be linked to correpsonding timesteps in the change.lookup.
