I am trying to explore MOLUSCE ver 3.0.4 in QGIS Dufour. I am trying to simulate the land use change using this tool. I have following querries:
- It asks for Initial and final year at the first step. Where to enter the exact year for which user is interested for prediction?
- It gives output file of simulation. For which year this simulation is? Since we already have given Initial and Final year.
Best Answer
Simulation is for the (final_year - start_year1) + final_year, or in other words your first and final year both define time span and your forecast is for final year + this timespan.
Keep in mind, that it doesn't really matter if you assign particular years or not, think in periods.
