A New Framework for Integrating DNN-Based Geographic Simulation Models within GISystems

Le résumé fourni par la source

As a crucial spatial decision support tool, Geographic Information Systems (GISystems) are widely used in fields such as digital watersheds, resource management, environmental assessment, and regional governance, with their core strength lying in the integration of geographic simulation models from various disciplines, enabling the analysis of complex geographical phenomena and the resolution of comprehensive spatial problems. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, deep neural network-based geographic simulation models (DNN-GSMs) have increasingly replaced traditional models, offering significant advantages in simulation accuracy and inference speed, and have become indispensable components in GISystems. However, existing integration methods do not adequately account for the specific characteristics of DNN-GSMs, such as their formats and input/output data types. To address this gap, we propose a novel tight integration framework for DNN-GSMs, comprising four key interfaces: the data representation interface, the model representation interface, the data conversion interface, and the model application interface. These interfaces are designed to describe spatial data, the simulation model, the adaptation between spatial data and the model, and the model’s application process within the GISystem, respectively. To validate the proposed method, we construct a spatial morphology simulation model based on CNN-LSTM, integrate it into a GISystem using the proposed interfaces, and conduct a series of predictive experiments on island morphology evolution. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed integration framework for DNN-GSMs.
