Few applied urban models can pursue large-scale extent > with fine-level units simultaneously due to data availability and > computation load. The framework of automatic identification and > characterization parcels developed by Long and Liu (2013) makes such > an ideal model possible by establishing existing urban parcels using > road networks and points of interest for a super large area (like a > country or a continent). In this study, a mega-vector-parcels > cellular automata model (MVP-CA) is developed for simulating urban > expansion at the parcel level for all 654 Chinese cities. Existing > urban parcels in 2012, for initiating MVP-CA, are generated using > multi-levelled road networks and ubiquitous points of interest, > followed by simulating parcel-based urban expansion of all cities > during 2012-2017. Reflecting national spatial development strategies > discussed extensively by academics and decision makers, the baseline > scenario and other two simulated urban expansion scenarios have been > tested and compared horizontally. As the first fine-scale urban > expansion model from the national scope, its academic contributions, > practical applications, and potential biases are discussed in this > paper as well. > > > Hope you could find interest on it.
