Gets transition rates from variables specified in a Vensim external model.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Landscape | Categorical Map | Map of classes or categories. |
Vensim Model Filename | Path | Vensim model filename and path. |
Initial Area Variables | Vensim Category Variable Set | List of Vensim variables selected to receive the initial land use and cover area distribution. The area figures are transferred to Vensim in hectares. |
Transition Rate Variables | Vensim Transition Variable Matrix | Matrix of Vensim variables that output the transition rates to be passed to Dinamica. |
Initial Time | Non Negative Int | Simulation initial time according to Vensim time specification. |
Name | Type | Description | Default Value |

Transition Matrix | Transition Matrix | Matrix of transition rates. |
A linkage between Vensim - a system thinking software - and Dinamica EGO was developed. A complex model can be written by using this software and its results passed simultaneously to Dinamica EGO. As a result both models can be coupled by the exchange of dynamic transition rates and the distribution of land use and land cover classes.
