“…This was also confirmed by Kurowska et al (2020), who indicated that the progressive loss of agricultural and forest land occurs despite stringent protective legal regulations. Rapid urbanisation significantly affects the environment, economy and society (Kowalewski et al 2013, jończy et al 2021, Kocur-Bera, Lyjak 2021, and achieving the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (Bielecka et al 2020) is a great challenge.…”

The study aims at land cover prediction based on cellular automata and artificial neural network (CA-ANN) method implemented in the Methods Of Land Use Change Evaluation (MOLUSCE) tool. The Tricity region and the neighbouring counties of Gdański and Kartuzy were taken as the research areas, and coordination of information on the environment (CORINE Land Cover, CLC, CLMS 2022) data for 2006, 2012 and 2018 were used to analyse, simulate and predict land cover for 2024, the next reference year of the CORINE inventory. The results revealed an increase in artificial surfaces, with the highest value during the period 2006–2012 (86.56 km2). In total, during the period 2006–2018, the growth in urbanised area amounted to 95.37 km2. The 2024 prediction showed that artificial surfaces increased by 9.19 km2, resulting in a decline in agricultural land.
