Abstract

This chapter focuses on visualizing the build-up process after the implementation of a land readjustment project in Japan. A prototype simulation tool, called CAUFN (cellular automata for urban form of neighborhoods), is developed on the ArcGIS platform for the simulation of land-use patterns and building types after land readjustment. This tool can be operated by planners to represent the build-up process at the urban district level to reveal the future forms of urban neighborhoods.
