Conference Paper Description

The paper presents a proposal for a hybrid model - based on cellular automata and agents - that simulates the spatial distribution of population and built area according to real estate market’s dynamics and the risk of flooding due to sea-level rise. Its main differential is the integration of network analysis metrics to the functioning of the cellular automata. This proposal was motivated by the interest in analysing future development scenarios for the coast of ​​Rio Grande do Sul, a state located in southern Brazil. Its demographic dynamics have been generating pressure for urban growth to the detriment of the surrounding natural environment, making cities in the region more susceptible to natural phenomena such as the sea-level rise. The proposed model is presented through the ODD + D description protocol and the results of simulations executed for Imbé and Tramandaí, two municipalities located on the coast of Rio Grande do Sul. The results show that the model represents the effect of current planning policies on long-term urban development. However, some urban dynamics are not yet precisely represented by the proposal at its current stage of development.
