Abstract:
Military installations embody enormous capital costs in infrastructure and personnel, and are critical resources for the sustainment of military readiness and projection capabilities. A current challenge to installation management is the continuous and rapid development of once rural land uses adjacent to our military assets, which threatens to compromise the integrity of this investment by undermining the military s ability to maintain its mission focus. An important step in resolving some of these issues is to ensure that participants clearly understand the dynamic and spatial interactions between the military community s mission and land use needs, and the adjacent community s goals, planning policies, and probable spatial growth patterns. The military Land use Evolution and impact Assessment Model (mLEAM) represents an innovative approach to simulating the evolution of urban systems in a spatial and dynamic visual decision support tool. Based on the Land use Evolution and impact Assessment Model (LEAM) developed at the University of Illinois, mLEAM uses a Cellular Automata (CA) approach tightly coupled with an open architecture to develop land-use transformation simulations that are targeted toward military specific applications. The simulations are evaluated for probable impacts so real time what-if scenarios can be played out across multiple stakeholders.
