             abstract = "Environmental modeling is an important tool that allows making 
                         hypotheses, diagnostics, predictions and simulations, as well as 
                         communicating scientific results clearly. Dynamic modeling of 
                         landscapes had an intense development in recent decades, along 
                         with the growing availability of remote sensing data, the 
                         popularization of GIS and the creation of methods for spatial 
                         analysis and simulation. This study compares the performance, 
                         flexibility and usability of two platforms for dynamic land-use 
                         modeling widely used, Dinamica EGO and Land Change Modeler. The 
                         comparison is based on a case study of deforestation in the 
                         Brazilian Amazon. The softwares were calibrated for the period 
                         1997 to 2000, with the same input data and similar parameters, and 
                         were used to simulate deforestation for the year 2003. We 
                         performed a compared validation of the results, using Kappa 
                         pixel-by-pixel indices, fuzzy reciprocal similarity and landscape 
                         metrics. The simulation performed by LCM showed better results for 
                         the first two validation methods, while DINAMICA EGO presented 
                         spatial metrics closer to the ones of the observed landscapes. It 
                         is concluded that both modelers generate coherent results, 
                         although with medium performance for the case studied. The 
                         softwares may serve to distinct purposes, being LCM best for end 
                         users who want a simplified tool for simulation, while DINAMICA 
                         EGO demands more knowledge from the user, but allows modification 
                         of the model structure, adapting it to specific needs.",
