Dymium is a microsimulation framework written in R for integrated urban modelling. It aims to solve technical challenges faced by microsimulation modellers and make the approach more accessible to a broad range of users. With numerous packages that are available for free in R, including Dymium, all the stages – data preparation, microsimulation, calibration, and model validation – in building a microsimulation model can be done effectively under one programming environment. Although we developed the framework for modelling urban systems, i.e., demography, firmography and transport modelling, it has all necessary functionalities that can be readily adopted for other contexts.
