Abstract
Generate LCLU simulations based upon actual conditions observed through the satellite time-series and extended in time & space through derived growth rules and neighborhood interactions. CA consists of a regular grid of cells, each of which can be in one of a finite number of K possible states, updated synchronously in discrete time steps according to a local, identical interaction rule. The state is determined by the previous states of a surrounding neighborhood of cells, and the rule is usually specified in the form of a transition function.
