{"id":"https://openalex.org/G5609948536","display_name":"Map simulation tool for the agro-ecological evaluation of land use change scenarios in tropical insular environment","description":"The DESCARTES project aims at developing a cartographic simulation tool for assessing land use change scenarios on a given territorial extent. It is designed to take into account the points of view of different stakeholders (e.g. public bodies, actors of the agricultural sector) as well as a set of constraints (e.g. demographic pressure, public policies, environmental regulations). This tool will be used to test the \u201cconsequences and coherences\u201d in terms of services (production and environmental services) of land use allocation scenarios in a territorial project, in order to reach an agreement between different parties towards the production of efficient ecological services. In this project, the simulation tool comes in support of a collective innovation process with the stakeholders of the territory. It aims to (i) develop a participatory approach which includes partners and the scientific community into implementing the project within a learning process; (ii) develop appropriate landscape modelling allowing this approach and (iii) develop a method to spatialize the environmental services of agriculture and to integrate them in the simulations. The simulation tool is applied on a study area located in Reunion Island. This island is representative of the issues and forthcoming stakes for agriculture: how to sustain development within a limited space, how to integrate new functions and to make up with new governance instances? The project considers two embedded spatial scales, that of the whole island which represent a \u201ccomplete\u201d territorial system, and that of a community of districts which gathers all the territorial issues of the island, and which has recently set up a landscape chart. The construction of the cartographic simulation tool is based on recent research works carried out by our teams, pertaining to (i) the development of a language and a software environment for modelling dynamic landscapes (ANR Project STAMP) and (ii) the deployment of an online agricultural information system (Margouill@ Platform). The DESCARTES project therefore tackles a number of issues that are currently hindering the sustainable management of territories and resources.","funder_award_id":"ANR-11-AGRO-0002","funder":{"id":"https://openalex.org/F4320320883","display_name":"Agence Nationale de la Recherche","doi":"https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001665"},"funded_outputs":["https://openalex.org/W2560689977","https://openalex.org/W4409684473"],"funded_outputs_count":2,"parent_awards":[],"sub_awards":[],"sub_awards_count":0,"amount":443552.0,"currency":"EUR","amount_usd":584379.76,"amount_usd_basis":"daily_rate","recipients":[],"recipient_countries":[],"recipient_regions":[],"research_scope":{"is_research":true,"basis":"funder_default","tier":1},"funding_type":"grant","funder_scheme":"Agrobiosphere","start_date":"2012-02-01","end_date":null,"start_year":2012,"end_year":null,"landing_page_url":"https://anr.fr/Projet-ANR-11-AGRO-0002","doi":null,"provenance":"anr_opendata","lead_investigator":{"given_name":"Agn\u00e8s","family_name":"BEGUE","orcid":null,"role_start":null,"affiliation":{"name":"CENTRE DE COOPERATION INTERNATIONALE EN RECHERCHE AGRONOMIQUE POUR LE DEVELOPPEMENT - CIRAD - DEPARTEMENT ES","country":"France","ids":null},"author":{"id":"https://openalex.org/A5043863290","display_name":"Agn\u00e8s B\u00e9gu\u00e9","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9289-1052"},"institutions":[{"id":"https://openalex.org/I131077856","display_name":"Centre de Coop\u00e9ration Internationale en Recherche Agronomique pour le D\u00e9veloppement","ror":"https://ror.org/05kpkpg04","country_code":"FR","type":"facility","lineage":["https://openalex.org/I131077856"]}]},"co_lead_investigator":null,"investigators":null,"works_api_url":"https://api.openalex.org/works?filter=awards.id:G5609948536","primary_topic":{"id":"https://openalex.org/T10226","display_name":"Land Use and Ecosystem Services","score":1.0,"subfield":{"id":"https://openalex.org/subfields/2306","display_name":"Global and Planetary Change"},"field":{"id":"https://openalex.org/fields/23","display_name":"Environmental Science"},"domain":{"id":"https://openalex.org/domains/3","display_name":"Physical Sciences"}},"topics":[{"id":"https://openalex.org/T10226","display_name":"Land Use and Ecosystem Services","score":1.0,"subfield":{"id":"https://openalex.org/subfields/2306","display_name":"Global and Planetary Change"},"field":{"id":"https://openalex.org/fields/23","display_name":"Environmental Science"},"domain":{"id":"https://openalex.org/domains/3","display_name":"Physical Sciences"}},{"id":"https://openalex.org/T11862","display_name":"Agriculture, Land Use, Rural Development","score":0.0,"subfield":{"id":"https://openalex.org/subfields/3303","display_name":"Development"},"field":{"id":"https://openalex.org/fields/33","display_name":"Social Sciences"},"domain":{"id":"https://openalex.org/domains/2","display_name":"Social Sciences"}},{"id":"https://openalex.org/T13058","display_name":"Soil and Land Suitability Analysis","score":0.0,"subfield":{"id":"https://openalex.org/subfields/2308","display_name":"Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law"},"field":{"id":"https://openalex.org/fields/23","display_name":"Environmental Science"},"domain":{"id":"https://openalex.org/domains/3","display_name":"Physical Sciences"}}],"keywords":[{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/land-use-change-scenarios","display_name":"land use change scenarios","score":0.932},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/participatory-planning","display_name":"participatory planning","score":0.588},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/landscape-modeling","display_name":"landscape modeling","score":0.724},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/ecosystem-services","display_name":"ecosystem services","score":0.519},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/agricultural-services","display_name":"agricultural services","score":0.595},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/stakeholder-engagement","display_name":"stakeholder engagement","score":0.585},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/spatial-planning","display_name":"spatial planning","score":0.46},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/sustainable-land-management","display_name":"sustainable land management","score":0.589},{"id":"https://openalex.org/keywords/reunion","display_name":"R\u00e9union","score":0.929}],"sustainable_development_goals":[{"id":"https://metadata.un.org/sdg/15","display_name":"Life on land","score":0.9209},{"id":"https://metadata.un.org/sdg/13","display_name":"Climate action","score":0.5352},{"id":"https://metadata.un.org/sdg/11","display_name":"Sustainable cities and communities","score":0.5143}],"institution_awarded":[{"id":"https://openalex.org/I131077856","display_name":"Centre de Coop\u00e9ration Internationale en Recherche Agronomique pour le D\u00e9veloppement","ror":"https://ror.org/05kpkpg04","country_code":"FR","type":"facility","lineage":["https://openalex.org/I131077856"]}],"updated_date":"2026-11-13T03:01:57.000Z","created_date":"2026-09-10T23:08:02.000Z"}
