*This item indicated the variables selected and used for driving or explaining the land-use transition, which were numbered for short in the table:

1: Digital elevation model map.

2: Slope map.

3: Distance to rural residential land, which is dynamic to be updated during calculation.

4: Distance to cities and towns, which is dynamic to be updated during calculation.

5: Distance to river, which is dynamic to be updated during calculation.

6: Distance to road.
