The Cellular Automata Markov model combines the cellular automata (CA) model’s ability to simulate the spatial variation of complex systems and the long-term prediction of the Markov model. In this research, we designed a parallel CA-Markov model based on the MapReduce framework. The model was divided into two main parts: A parallel Markov model based on MapReduce (Cloud-Markov), and comprehensive evaluation method of land-use changes based on cellular automata and MapReduce (Cloud-CELUC). Choosing Hangzhou as the study area and using Landsat remote-sensing images from 2006 and 2013 as the experiment data, we conducted three experiments to evaluate the parallel CA-Markov model on the Hadoop environment. Efficiency evaluations were conducted to compare Cloud-Markov and Cloud-CELUC with different numbers of data. The results showed that the accelerated ratios of Cloud-Markov and Cloud-CELUC were 3.43 and 1.86, respectively, compared with their serial algorithms. The validity test of the prediction algorithm was performed using the parallel CA-Markov model to simulate land-use changes in Hangzhou in 2013 and to analyze the relationship between the simulation results and the interpretation results of the remote-sensing images. The Kappa coefficients of construction land, natural-reserve land, and agricultural land were 0.86, 0.68, and 0.66, respectively, which demonstrates the validity of the parallel model. Hangzhou land-use changes in 2020 were predicted and analyzed. The results show that the central area of construction land is rapidly increasing due to a developed transportation system and is mainly transferred from agricultural land.

Based on the Landsat remote sensing data, this paper had monitored the coastline changes of Xiamen city in recent 20 years. By extracting the coastline vector data of 1999, 2005, 2011 and 2017 respectively, the spatio-temporal characteristics of coastline changes on coastline length, change rate and land change area were analyzed, and the main driving factors were analyzed combined with the land use changes in the coastal swing area. The results show that: the total length of Xiamen's coastline increased from 235.16 km to 264.98 km during 1999-2017, and the land area increased from 1558.84 km2 to 1594.29 km2. The most significant changes occurred in Xiang'an district and Huli district with the coastline length increased by 16.38% during 2011-2017 and 22.14% during 1999-2005 respectively, while the changes were not very conspicuous in other areas. According to the land use changes in the coastal areas, the coastline changes in Xiamen City were mainly related to the expansion of construction land and port constructions in Haicang district, Xiang'an district and Huli district, as well as the expansion of aquaculture in the Xiang'an district.

The simulation and prediction of the land use changes is generally carried out by cellular automata—Markov (CA-Markov) model, and the generation of suitable maps collection is subjective in the simulation process. In this study, the CA-Markov model was improved by the Boosted Regression Trees (BRT) to simulate land use to make the model objectively. The weight of ten driving factors of the land use changes was analyzed in BRT, in order to produce the suitable maps collection. The accuracy of the model was verified. The outcomes represent a match of over 84% between simulated and actual land use in 2015, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.89, which was satisfactory to approve the calibration process. The land use of Hotan Oasis in 2025 and 2035 were predicted by means of this hybrid model. The area of farmland, built-up land and water body in Hotan Oasis showed an increasing trend, while the area of forestland, grassland and unused land continued to show a decreasing trend in 2025 and 2035. The government needs to formulate measures to improve the utilization rate of water resources to meet the growth of farmland, and need to increase ecological environment protection measures to curb the reduction of grass land and forest land for the ecological health.

Abstract The land's natural resources are invaluable and a requisite for the existence and development of humans and other organisms on Earth. In recent years, under the strong impact of new directions in economic and social development, the demand for land has been increasing. The percentage of land used for residential living, transportation, irrigation and infrastructure tends to increase, while the share of agricultural land is continuously decreasing. Consequently, the allocation and efficient use of land is one of the most important concerns in order to enable sustainable development, environmental protection and ecology. Therefore, research to determine the volatility and changing trends in land use is necessary. This study uses remote sensing and GIS technology, combined with the Markov Chain to determine variation and forecast the changes in land use in the Y Yen district of the Nam Dinh province of Vietnam. This will create a basis for helping land managers grasp the situation in local land use management.

In the past years, the development of Sleman Regency has been considered rapid as evidenced by the emergence of built up areas including expansion of the university areas, shopping malls, and housing. Along with the increase in the total population, university students and workers from other regions coming to this regency, the land use in Sleman Regency has started to shift. Land use changes need to be controlled by predicting land use using the CA-Markov model. CA-Markov modeling has dynamic properties that integrate the dimensions of space and time, where the occurrence of events is determined by events that directly precede them and can be used to predict the next event. The accuracy of the CA-Markov concept can be determined by validation and expressed in the Kappa coefficient value (≥ 0.70). This CA-Markov concept has been developed since the 1940s in the field of computers by Von Neumann and Ulam. In this concept it is assumed that pixels are the beginning of the mathematical concept. When a pixel changes, its new status is only affected by its old status and the neighbor status.  This research was conducted to predict the land use in 2031 using the Cellular Automata-Makov model, evaluate the use of land in 2031 in relation to RTRW or city plan, and create a scenario of the direction for land use control in 2031 for disaster-prone areas. Based on the prediction of land use in Sleman Regency in 2031, Kappa coefficient was obtained at 0.7399, implying that the suitability of spatial area and distribution reached 73.99% which is considered good. The results of the prediction also showed that in 2031, the land use would be dominated by building area which was predicted to reach 43.53% out of the total area. The evaluation of land use prediction in 2031 based on RTRW method showed that as large as 40.137,39 ha land would be used according to the RTRW, while 17.411,00 ha would not be used accordingly. The improper use of land might be due to the shift in the use of 4.659,18 ha of rice fields into buildings.
