Application of High-Speed Rail Urban Growth Scenarios, using the UPlan Urban Growth Model in Victorville, California
… land-use patterns surrounding a high-speed rail (HSR) station in Victorville, CA, are modeled using UPlan, a geographic information system (GIS) based urban growth model. UPlan is meant to provide a basic platform for modeling future growth to show what future growth patterns 'might' look like. …
