Abstract

Land resource inventories to determine land suitabilities have become a standard part of planning analysis at many scales. Any attempt to review, compare, evaluate, or improve upon the myriad of case studies, many only partially documented and in limited circulation, suffers from the lack of reference to a common framework. This article develops a general statement of the purpose and character of land suitability analysis, a taxonomy of existing methods for identifying homogeneous areas and rating them as to suitability for specific uses, and a comparative evaluation of these methods.

  • Functional connectivity analyses through graph trees provide the mathematical computational framework to explore the geometric theorems of land suitability offered by spatial analyses in a Generalised Additive Model (GAM).

    “Functional connectivity analyses through graph trees provide the mathematical computational framework to explore what are essentially the geometric theorems of land suitability that are offered up by the spatial analyses in a Generalised Additive Model (GAM) (Delangre, Radoux, & Dufrêne 2018; Hastie 2017; Hopkins 1977).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
