Model Code Name:
CRAFTY Parallel  

Description:
CRAFTY (Competition for Resources between Agent Functional Types) is a large-scale ABM (Agent-based model) framework of land use change. It has been designed to allow efficient but powerful simulation of a wide range of land uses and the goods and services they produce.  

Purpose:
Landscape Model  

Type:
Agent based model
