Description: Evaluates land suitability for different crops production.
        The package is based on the Food and Agriculture Organization
        (FAO) and the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI)
        methodology for land evaluation. Development of ALUES is
        inspired by similar tool for land evaluation, Land Use
        Suitability Evaluation Tool (LUSET). The package uses fuzzy
        logic approach to evaluate land suitability of a particular
        area based on inputs such as rainfall, temperature, topography,
        and soil properties. The membership functions used for fuzzy
        modeling are the following: Triangular, Trapezoidal and
        Gaussian. The methods for computing the overall suitability of
        a particular area are also included, and these are the Minimum,
        Maximum and Average. Finally, ALUES is a highly optimized
        library with core algorithms written in C++.
