Abstract
This paper describes current research work in the application of neural networks to conditional spatial simulation. A number of possible approaches are suggested and an example simulation using a feedforward, error back propagation network is shown. The advantages and disadvantages of the neural network approach are discussed and some possible directions for further work are suggested.
