run_spam runs the selected model (min_entropy or max_score) in GAMS. If model_sel = 1, the model is run for each individual administrative unit at level 1. If model_sel = 0 the model is run only once for the total country. Selecting out = TRUE (default setting), the model log will be sent to the screen after the model run is finished. The log is as text file, whicn names starts with model_log_ and is saved in the processed_data/intermediate_output folder. Note that, depending on the size of the country and the selected resolution, the model might take a lot of time to run. If the model is very large, there is a risk your computer runs out of memory and an error message will be printed in the model log.

run_spam(param, )

SPAMc results are saved into one (solve_level = 0) or multiple (solve_level = 1) gdx files after the run_spam is executed. combine_results() combines the file(s) into a single rds file, that can be easily loaded into R and used for further inspection and further processing. The file is saved in the processed_data/results folder.
