abstract = "Top-down land change models use computer simulation to allocate
demands for change over the spatial region under study. This paper
presents a metric to estimate the goodness of fit of land change
models. It focuses only on changed areas, preventing inflated
goodness of fit values due to large fractions of the landscape
remaining unchanged. We use the proposed metric to evaluate land
change models for Amazonia. Despite large quality differences
between them, all models have problems to predict new frontiers
and expansion areas. The best model considered in this paper only
performs slightly better than a simple model that predicts a cells
deforestation based on the deforestation in neighboring cells.",
