This repisitory contains the accompanying resources for the ABM & GIS book. The book's website is: http://www.abmgis.org/.

The repisitory is organised around the format of the book. In each subdirectory you can find material used in that chapter (including models, data and other material)

• Chapter 1: Agent-based Modelling and Geographical Information Systems
• Chapter 2: Introduction to Agent-Based Modelling
• Chapter 3: Designing and Developing An Agent-Based Model
• Chapter 4: Building Agent-Based Models with NetLogo
• Chapter 5: Fundamentals of Geographical Information Systems
• Chapter 6: Integrating Agent-Based Modelling and GIS
• Chapter 7: Modelling Human Behaviour
• Chapter 8: Networks
• Chapter 9: Spatial Statistics
• Chapter 10: Evaluating Our Models: Verification, Calibration, Validation
• Chapter 11: Alternative Modelling Approaches
• Chapter 12: Summary and Outlook
• Appendix: A Gallery of Applications (i.e. example models)

In addtion we provide:

• Links to Movies of models used and discussed in the book
• Links to other resources (e.g. journals, conferences, blogs, etc.) for ABM and GIS.

Most of the resources, such as presentations and documents, can be downloaded individually through this website. The NetLogo models, however, often need some accompanying data. The easiest way to run the models is to download this whole repository and extract the zip file. Then the models can be run by loading them into NetLogo.

To get full use of the book and what is provided here we suggest you download and install:

• NetLogo (Verson 6.0.4) https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/download.shtml
• QGIS https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html

If you have any questions, suggestions or want to contribute a model feel free to drop us a line.
