Abstract--The Lowry family of urban land use simulation models is one of the most widely used,
both as an aid in scientific investigation, and as a tool for making predictions concerning growth
and change in the distribution and intensity of land use activities. This paper outlines the
theoretical work and modelling experience which led to the development of the Lowry family of
land use simulation models and sketches the main features of its logical structure. The paper
commences with a discussion of procedural relationships between modelling and planning, focus-
ing upon difficulties which are frequently encountered when predictive models are to be designed
for planning purposes. Next, the paper describes the conceptual foundations of the gravity and
entropy-maximizing models of spatial interaction, followed by an explanation of how the gravity
idea was applied in the Lowry model of urban land use and its successors. Finally, the last section
of the paper is devoted to ITLUP, in which Lowry-type land use models embodying entropy-
maximizing trip functions are linked with a transportation network simulation model.
1. INTRODUCTION
THE DYNAMICprocesses which determine the spatial distribution and intensity of land use
activities in urban regions have been of interest to planners and scientists for some time.
However, only since the development of the computer and related techniques has it
become possible to develop simulation models which spatially represent these processes
and to predict changes in the metropolitan land use patterns.
The use of these models has been steadily increasing in the last three decades and is
currently well established. Thus, planning literature is rich with discussions of: the theor-
etical underpinnings of these models [ 11; their relationship to social science research and
to planning [2]; the state-of-the-art of their development [3]; and their utilization by
various planning agencies [4].
The Lowry family of land use simulation models is perhaps the most widely utilized
for research in urban dynamics as well as policy decision-making, and the purpose of this
paper is to outline the theoretical work and modelling experience from which this family
of models has developed and to sketch the main features of its logical structure.
The paper commences with a discussion of procedural relationships between model-
ling and planning, focusing upon difficulties which are frequently encountered when
predictive models are to be designed for planning purposes. Next, the paper describes the
conceptual foundations of the gravity and entropy-maximizing models of spatial interac-
tion, which is followed by an explanation of how the gravity idea was applied in the
Lowry model of urban land use and its successors. Finally, the last section of the paper is
devoted to ITLUP, in which Lowry-type land use models embodying entropy-maximiz-
ing trip functions are linked with a transportation network simulation model.
Britton Harris [2] provides a useful account of the relations between prediction and
the planning process as a whole. He decomposes planning into five types of activity: (a)
determination of the goals to be pursued, (b) design, in which plans relevant to the
desired goals are specified, (c) prediction of the consequences of the plans produced in
stage b, (d) decision, in which the predicted consequences of the various plans are
evaluated against the criteria specified in stage (a), and one plan is chosen as the best

available, and (e) implementation of the chosen plan. Within this general framework,
three major classes of models relevant to urban planning may be distinguished: descrip-
tive models, predictive models, and optimizing models.
A descriptive model
replicate(s) the relevant features of an existing urban environment or of an
already-observed process or urban change. Good descriptive models are of
scientific value because they reveal much about the structure of urban en-
vironments, reducing the apparent complexity of the observed world to the
coherent and vigorous language of mathematical relationships [S, p. 1591.
A predictive model, like a descriptive model, is a statement of theory, and the predic-
tions which it yields may, under some circumstances, be used to test the validity of its
theoretical foundations. The special practical importance of prediction is due to its
position in the main stream of the planning process. Indeed, the main force behind the
development of predictive models has been the desire to understand the consequences
and ramifications of planning proposals.
An optimizing model can be regarded as a logically-complete specification of the
three central stages of the planning process: design. prediction and choice. Clearly the
form of such a model will be determined by the goals to be optimized, and on the
real-world context of the predictive stage. Certain mathematical procedures (e.g. dynamic
programming and branch and bound programming) can in principle be used as frame-
works for planning models under a very wide range of objective functions: but for
planning problems of even moderate size and complexity. the computational times
involved are astronomical, and only a few narrowly-defined types of problems are amen-
able to definitive and efficient solution by optimizing models 161.
Since predictive models are of major concern to the urban and regional planner, it
will be useful to outline some of the principles and considerations governing their design
and development.
reflect its theoretical origins only in oblique and approximate ways. Mechan-
isms that work, however mysteriously, get substituted for those whose virtue
lies in theoretical elegance [IS, p. 1601.
This conflict between theoretical elegance and practical exigency is evident in the
problem of verification. Theories of urban processes are almost always tested by statisti-
cal methods rather than by direct experiment, and statistical tests of urban models are
often run with the data sets to which the models were fitted in the first place [see, for
example. 5, p. 1641. Again, it must be emphasized that empirical validity is rarely the
primary objective of urban modelling:
From the point of view of the planning practitioner, models must purport to
reflect an established theory and the hypothesis testing which might proceed
consists of hypotheses about the viability of plans rather than hypotheses
about the realism of the theory.. Some failures of modelling . . can be
traced to the fact that the theories behind the models were never fully tested,
and in some cases, have not even been well formulated [6, pp. 257-2581.
The scheme by which the urban system is to be decomposed into elements, and the
treatment of time. have critical bearing on the theoretical structure of any predictive
model.
Decomposition (or taxonomy) involves problems of aggregation and data availability.
In predicting residential location, for example, the best course from a theoretical point of
view would be to model the behavior of every actor in the housing market: in such a
micro-model, aggregation would be withheld until the very end of the computational
process; but normally the only available data (e.g. census data) is already in aggregate
form, and even in an ostensibly micro-formulation, we are driven to rather gross simplifi-
cations (e.g. treating census tracts, income groups and major industry groupings as
internally homogeneous) [7]. In fact, many residential models operate explicitly at rather
high levels of aggregation. For example, in DRAM (the residential allocation portion of
ITLUP: see Section 6.1) employees initially aggregated into II work-place zones are
assigned to the n2 work-to-home trip routes, and then re-aggregated as members of
households in the II residential zones. For planning purposes, an aggregative approach
will often be quite adequate, and in the maximum entropy formulation (see Section 3) it
can be defended on theoretical grounds, as indicated by Wilson: “Systems described on
large aggregate scales often behave in a more deterministic, less probabilistic way” [g, p.
2601.
Wilson [S] distinguishes three ways of dealing with time: implicitly: explicitly and
discretely; explicitly and continuously. In the first case, the system is treated as if under
exogenously determined curcumstances (e.g. policy variables and aggregate control
totals) it will proceed in one step from its present state to an equilibrium state, from
which it can be disturbed only by changes in the exogenous variables. In most Lowry
and inputtoutput models the one step is accomplished by a series of computational steps
which converge upon the equilibrium state, but these intermediate steps do not have a
clear theoretical interpretation (see Section on the Lowry Model).
In the second case, “time is treated as a discrete variable, and the model is expressed
in terms of difference equations” [8, p. 2601. For example, in INTRA-II or in IPLUM
(see Section 5) the operative variables are changes in the magnitude of the various input
and output variables, with the changes taken as increments across the (5-year) time
period over which the model is calibrated [9].
In the third case (continuous time), the model would be written in terms of differential
equations, but data limitations and problems of parameter estimation apparently have
precluded the development of urban models of this kind [S, p. 2601.

In this form the gravity model can be treated as a regression equation, whose parameters
P and c( can be estimated after taking the logarithms of both sides.
Still following the Newtonian analogy, Oi can be substituted for M/;, and Dj can be
substituted for Wj, where Oi is defined as the number of trip-orgins in zone i and Dj is
defined as the number of trip-destinations in zone j. We write these definitions as a pair
of constraints:

Alan Wilson [lo] has shown that equation (5) can be obtained by an application of
the statistical concept of entropy (or uncertainty) without recourse to the Newtonian
analogy. Senior [ 11) and Cesario [12] give an illuminating account of the principles
embodied in the entropy-maximizing procedure. A summary of their exposition is
presented here taking for illustration a system in which the ~j are journeys to work.

(b) At the mesostate level, the system is represented as a matrix [Tj] of interzonal
work-trip frequencies. A mesostate can be obtained by aggregation from a given micros-
tate:
~j = C ~~j. (8)

(c) At the macrostate level the system is represented as a vector of residences [Oil
and a vector of places of employment [DJ. A macrostate can be obtained by aggregation
from a given microstate:
as before, Oi = C ~j (3)
(2) Given a microstate description of a system, only one mesostate is possible, and
given a mesostate description, only one macrostate is possible: in both cases the higher
level description can be found by simple summation [see equations (8), (3) and (4)].
However, proceeding downwards in a similar fashion is not possible since each macro-
state describes a set of possible mesostates, and each mesostate describes a set of possible
microstates. This is illustrated in the following example of a three-zone system for which
4 7 ~j = 21 (Fig. 1).
Each macrostate may arise in a number of ways, e.g. the mesostates of macrostate 1
include the two shown in Fig. 2. Furthermore, each mesostate may arise in a number of
ways. For example, the microstates of mesostate 1.1 include the two shown in Fig. 3.
Thus it is not possible to proceed in a deterministic fashion from a macrostate descrip-
tion to a mesostate description, or from a mesostate description to a microstate descrip-
tion.
(3) In addition to the production and attraction constraints (equations 3 and 4), a cost
constant is specified :
11 Tjcij = k (9)
1 i
The necessity for this third constraint is evident if the two systems S, and SZ, which
are identical with respect to [Cij], [Oi] and [Dj] are compared. If tripmakers in S, tend
to travel greater distances than tripmakers in S,, then K, > K, and the trip distributions
[Tj], and [qj]z will differ.
(4) The maximum-entropy approach proceeds from a macrostate description to a
mesostate description in a probabilistic fashion. Two assumptions are required: first, that
all microstates are assumed to be equally probable and second, that the most likely
mesostate or macrostate is assumed to be the one with the greatest number of possible
microstates.
In other words, the most probable trip distribution is the trip matrix [~j] which can
occur in the greatest number of ways W([Tj]). It can be shown by combinatorial
theory [ 13) that
where
T = C Oi = C Oj = C C 7i‘j.

The mathematical problem, then, is to maximize W([~j]) as specified in equation (10)
subject to the constraints expressed in equations (3) (4) and (9). Wilson’s procedure
for solving this problem [14, Chap. 21 involves the use of Lagrangian multipliers, and
leads to

(5) Two important variations on equation (11) can be derived on similar lines. First,
given [Dj] but not CO,], the origins constraint [equation (3)] can be deleted. Then
defining Wi as a measure of the benefits deriving from residential location in zone i, we
obtain a destinations-constrained model,

(16)
and 7 = a parameter of the system, whose magnitude reflects the magnitude of total
residential location-dependent benefits in the system.
Second, given [O,] but not [Dj], the destinations constraint [equation (4)] can be
deleted. Then. defining Wj as a measure of benefits deriving from employment in zone .j,
an origins-constrained model is obtained,
Tj = AiOiW~e-fl’~I work-trip distribution (17)
Dj = 1 AiOiWye-@“J employment location (18)
where
(19)
and 0 = a parameter of the system, whose magnitude reflects the magnitude of total
location-dependent employment benefits in the system.
(a) Employment in basic industries, such as steel mills, wholesale trade, and federal
government offices. These industries are regarded as the prime generators of all other
204 MEIR GROSS
urban activities; in particular, their locational distribution within the metropolitan area
is considered to be independent of the markets for their outputs.
(b) Employment in service industries. This category encompasses all non-basic indus-
tries, and is disaggregated into various categories (e.g. retail trade, education, entertain-
ment, professional services). The locational distribution of service industries within the
metropolitan area is considered to be directly dependent upon the intra-metropolitan
final demand for their outputs.
(c) Residentiul land use. It is assumed that the location of residential population
depends directly upon accessibility to places of employment, and indirectly upon accessi-
bility to service establishments.
(a) A minimum size constraint on service employment allocated to each zone. This
constraint is different for each service sector, and corresponds with the threshold size of
service establishments in central place theory.
(b) An available-space constraint on retail development: retail employment is allo-
cated only to zones in which there is vacant land available for development.
(c) A maximum-density constraint on residential population in each zone. This con-
straint can be varied to correspond with different density ordinances in different zones.
constraints applies, the service employment or residential population which would have
been allocated to the zone in question is allocated elsewhere.
Finally. it should be noted that the Lowry model requires an activity rate to convert
resident employees to resident population, and service ratios to convert customers to
employees in the various non-basic sectors. These rates imply (and can be derived from)
exogenous control totals for residential population and for non-basic employment by
sector [ 19, pp. 225-2261.
Some progress has been made towards overcoming these theoretical deficiencies.
TOMM and other successors of the Lowry model incorporate comparative-static treat-
ments of time-using difference equations rather than Lowry’s timeless generative equa-
tions-while retaining Lowry’s iterative solution procedure (see next section). The formal
properties of the solution procedure were clarified in 1966 by Robert A. Garin [20], who
“demonstrated that the iterative process used by Lowry.. . could be replaced by elemen-
tary matrix operations to obtain an exact rather than an approximate solu-
tion” 121, p. 1031.
First, and most important, was the fact that TOMM was an incremental
model rather than an ‘instant-metropolis’ model. In the TOMM model, which
was intended for projection purposes, the base year distributions of all activi-
ties are included as determinants of the projection year’s distribution of activi-
ties. The essential notion here is that, in contradistinction to the original
Lowry model, not all households nor all ‘non-basic’ employment is ‘free’ to
move in any given projection period, e.g. 5 or 10 years.. . . Second, rather than
treating population as homogeneous, the TOMM model disaggregates popu-
lation into several types. The third important difference between TOMM and
Lowry is that.. . TOMM uses a measure of amenities, albeit very much sim-
plified, to determine the [spatial] distribution of household types [7].
Goldner and Greybeal’s BASS [23], and Goldner’s PLUM [9] were both developed
for the San Francisco Bay Area Simulation Study. The BASS residential submodel
incorporates an explicit treatment of housing supply and its relations with housing
demand :
(a) Housing is divided into two major types, single-family and multiple-family, and
each type is subdivided into three income-group categories [24]. The computation of
potential housing supply by category and zone involves measures of existing housing
stock, existing residential density, developable land and land slope in each zone. The
measures of developable land and existing stock are pre-adjusted to simulate the process
whereby dwelling units ‘filter’ down to successively lower income groups as they age until
finally they become obsolete and are demolished.
206 MEIRGROSS
(b) Housing demand in each zone is obtained as the product of potential supply and a
gravity-type measure of accessibility to places of employment.
(c) Each zone is allocated its demanded quantity of housing, subject to a constraint
which prevents the supplied quantity from exceeding the supply potential
(d) Finally, excess demand is aggregated and then reallocated to zones in which the
supply potential was not filled on the first allocation.
The most significant feature of PLUM is its treatment of spatial interaction. Instead
of the accessibility potential equations used in earlier models, PLUM estimates the trip
matrix [qj] before aggregating to origins or destinations. The accessibtlity measure used
in the estimation of [xj] incorporates travel cost [Cfj] and two parameters, in a form
which anticipates in some respects the Tanner function used in DRAM and EMPAL (see
Section 6.2). The matrix of zone-to-zone travel costs [cij] is obtained as the matrix of
travel-time in the base-year transportation network. rather than direct airline distances.
This is a major step towards the interactive treatment of transportation and travel cost
embodied in ITLUP.
A late version of PLUM, called IPLUM, had a discrete-dynamic formulation: “The
basic employment inputs are in the form of changes from the base year to the projection
year and all the projected allocations are in terms of changes from the base
year” [25, p. 1953. IPLUM was the land-use model used in early versions of ITLUP. but
the incremental formulation has since been abandoned.
To most American planners and funding agencies these models were a major disap-
pointment. In all three cases, calibration was done mainly by trial and error, and only
one model (PLUM) was used directly to make forecasts in a planning context; but
several English researchers were taking serious interest in the work of their transatlantic
colleagues. Wilson published his entropy derivation of the gravity model in 1967 and a
number of Lowry-derivative models were developed for and applied to British town-
planning situations during the late 1960s and early 197Os, with special attention to the
calibration problems and the formulation of the travel-cost function f(C,j). The fruit of
this English work was to play a critical part in the development and refinement of
ITLUP.
(EMPAL). These models were based originally on IPLUM (see Section 5) but they have
since been substantially modified in light of Wilson’s entropy theory. The transportation
models are adapted from models distributed by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
To simulate the interactions which connect land use processes with transportation pro-
cesses, the models are run in succession: the outputs from the land use models are input
to the transportation models, the consequent transportation forecasts are then input to
the land use models, etc.
The present set-up of ITLUP for a single forecast period is a simple concatenation of
EMPAL, DRAM and the network package.
(la) Given the base-year travel-cost matrix [cij] and the base-year spatial distribu-
tions of employment and residential population, EMPAL estimates the forecast-year
distribution of employment, disaggregated by industrial sector.
(1 b) DRAM estimates the forecast-year distribution of residential population corre-
sponding with the distribution of employment forecast in EMPAL. The forecast-year
travel matrix [Tj] implicit in this step is extracted for input to the network package.
(2) The forecast-year travel matrix [Tj] is converted from person-trips to vehicle-
trips, and loaded onto the forecast-year transportation network. This step models the
effects of traffic congestion upon traffic patterns, and produces forecasts of traffic volume
and congested impedence for every link in the network.
Travel-cost and traffic-volume appear as variables in the land-use models and in the
network models. At each interface between the land-use package and the netowrk pack-
age, certain conversions are necessary, due to changes in the definition of the variables.
These changes in definition are a consequence of the distinction between the quasi-
network of zone centroids (in the land use models), and the actual transportation
network (in the network models). Thus, the link-impedences of the transportation
network are converted to inter-zonal travel costs [cij], and the inter-zonal travel matrix
[Tj] is converted to network traffic volumes in the network models.
The time-interval for which EMPAL has been calibrated (typically 5 years) deter-
mines the time period between base year and forecast year over which ITLUP is to be
run. EMPAL requires exogenous forecasts of total regional employment in the various
industrial sectors, while DRAM requires exogenous forecasts of total regional population
in the various household income groups and an exogenous future-year transportation
network (i.e. the existing network is modified by any transportation policy proposals to
be tested).
Obviously, the forecasting procedure outlined above can be repeated over successive
time periods. The land use forecasts produced for the first forecast date (t + 1) become
base year inputs for the second forecast period (t + 2), etc., subject to exogenous controls
for each forecast date, as outlined in the previous paragraph. Reiteration of ITLUP in
this manner produces cumulative endogenous changes in all location-specific variables,
and in the matrix of inter-zonal travel costs. In particular:
(a) Associated with DRAM and EMPAL there is an accounting system which updates
the various attractiveness factors (e.g. land utilization and building density) in accordance
with the forecast changes in residential and employment location.
(b) Upon completion of the network simulation stage, the congested network impe-
dences are converted to inter-zonal travel costs [cij] for input to EMPAL.
It should be noted that in contrast to the classical Lowry model framework, EMPAL
and DRAM are functionally separable. They are calibrated separately and can be run
separately. This is a very convenient arrangement, and involves abandonment of the
iterative computational schemes used in earlier models. It was adopted after a series of
tests had shown that
the best estimate of a future year is produced after the first iteration of the
solution procedure. If the solution process is continued for further iterations,
until an equilibrium is reached, the resulting solution is a less accurate fore-
cast of the future year [29, pp. 30-311.
208 MEIR GROSS
This result is consistent with the idea that the “system being modelled.. at any given
moment is not in, but tending towards, an equilibrium” [29, p. 311.
EMPAL uses a single equation structure to forecast all sectors of employment, with
no primary distinction between basic and non-basic industry. The equation has the form
(20)
where
Ejk,t + I =
sector k employment in zone j at time t + 1 (forecast year)
Ejk,t =
sector k employment in zone j at time t (base year)
N,,, =

measures of the attractiveness of zone j for industrial location
Wj =

economies
Xj = land area of zone ,j
f(cij) = a function of travel cost, and

sector (in EMPAL), or by income group (in DRAM).
Where (as is normally the case) M and p are both positive, this function may be inter-
preted as the product of an ‘opportunities’ Factor with a ‘deterrence’ factor:
The separate components and the combined Tanner function are plotted in Fig. 4. The
combined function usually shows a tendency for people to reside ‘close’ to their place of
employment, but ‘not too close’.
(a) If (as is the case with DRAM and EMPAL) it is suspected that there may be more
than one ‘hill’ in the solution space, a rational strategy for finding a high hill-top will

involve running the procedure several times from different starting points (see for
example Harris [6, pp. 93-961).
(b) The criterion currently used in calibrating DRAM and EMPAL is maximum
likelihood. This criterion seems to be more efficient-steeper slopes, sharper peaks-than
the coefficient of determination r2.
(c) DRAM and EMPAL can be written in disaggregate form, with Tj as the depen-
dent variable, or aggregate form, with
(a) The first increment is assigned to shortest paths through the initially empty
network, one trip-origin-node-based ‘tree’ at a time. Increasing levels of traffic congestion
due to the assigned traffic are modeled as successive changes in the link-impedance
matrix which describes the network. The impedance function is
(b) The second and third increments of traffic are assigned to shortest paths, as in step
(a).
The cumulative modification of the impedance matrix permits traffic to take alterna-
tive routes around links which have become heavily congested, and reduces the distor-
tion due to the all-or-nothing (shortest-path) method of route-tracing. Bias due to the
arbitrary sequencing of trees is minimized by the division of traffic into several incre-
ments. Tests indicate that this method is the most efficient trip-assignment procedure
available [32].
7. CONCLUSION
This paper attempted to briefly sketch the historical development of the Lowry family
of land use models and to outline the main features of its logical structure. The paper
concluded with a description of a Lowry-based modelling package which simulates the
joint interaction of congestion and location and thus assists in determining policies by
which a stable pattern of growth and highway utilization could be predicted. Recent
developments suggest that packages such as ITLUP can constitute the basic elements of
a comprehensive planning tool which planners could use to investigate a wide range of
The Lowry model of land use simulation 211
urban phenomena. Thus, such systems have been proposed and tested for analyzing the
impact of public policies on air quality, water quality and energy consumption, and for
environmental quality management (see for example [33-361). The utilization of these
systems should yield substantial improvements in planning intelligence.
