The investigators then used a Markov
microsimulation model to estimate each policy's impact on diet or physical activity, and then Body Mass Index (BMI), in a simulated school - aged population in 2032, or 20 years after implementation.
But it is possible to slow the pace of urban sprawl by harnessing the full development potential of central areas, according to forecasts by Guillaume Marois, a recent Ph.D. from INRS who has developed a spatial
microsimulation model called Local Demographic Simulations (LDS).
Guillaume Marois developed the LDS
microsimulation model as part of his Ph.D. in demography.
A microsimulation modeling approach would, for example, allow FEMA to compare the price of NFIP premiums that reflect true flood risk — as called for in the Biggert - Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 — with measures of policyholders» ability to pay.
