The aim of this book is to explore the challenges facing rural
communities and economies and to demonstrate the potential of
spatial microsimulation for policy and analysis in a rural context.
This is done by providing a comprehensive overview of a particular
spatial microsimulation model called SMILE (Simulation Model of the
Irish Local Economy). The model has been developed over a ten year
period for applied policy analyis in Ireland which is seen as an
ideal study area given its large percentage of population living in
rural areas. The book reviews the policy context and the state of
the art in spatial microsimulation against which SMILE was
developed, describes in detail its model design and calibration,
and presents example of outputs showing what new information the
model provides using a spatial matching process. The second part of
the book explores a series of rural issues or problems, including
the impacts of new or changing government or EU policies, and
examines the contribution that spatial microsimulation can provide
in each area.
