docs | |
---|---|
package |
This model simulates urban growth and transformation with the objective of
minimising the energy required for transportation. This user manual
describes its technical implementation as the iucm
python package.
Here we provide the principal steps on how to install and use the model, as well as a complete documentation of the python API and the command line interface.
The scientific background will be published in a separate journal article.
