In the 1990s, the new generation IMAGE 2, was developed with regional drivers of global change and gridded, process-oriented modelling of the terrestrial biosphere, land cover and land use ([[Alcamo, 1994]]).

Further refinements and extensions were implemented in IMAGE 2.1 ([[Alcamo et al., 1998]]) to enhance model performance and broaden its applicability to issues other than climate change. | Further refinements and extensions were implemented in IMAGE 2.1 ([[Alcamo et al., 1998]]) to enhance model performance and broaden its applicability to issues other than climate change. |
