Table 1

Relationship between growth types and growth parameters.

Growth type	Controlling coefficients	Description
Spontaneous	Diffusion	Simulates random urbanization of land
New spreading center	Breed	Simulates establishment of new urban growth centers
Edge	Spread, slope	Simulates outward expansion and infilling of existing urban areas
Road-influenced	Road gravity, diffusion,; breed, slope	Simulates newly urbanized cell growth along transportation networks
