Spatial Analysis: Modeling and Trends - by Harry Garrison (Hardcover)

About the Book

Spatial analysis, also called spatial statistics, consists of the formal techniques which study objects using their topological, geometric or geographic properties. It is a type of geographical analysis that attempts to explain human behavioral patterns and its spatial expression in terms of mathematics and geometry. Spatial analysis involves a range of techniques using various analytical methods. These techniques are applied in diverse fields such as astronomy and chip fabrication engineering. Many of the models deal with micro-economics and predict the spatial patterns which ought to occur. Spatial analysis is applied to structures at the human scale. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in this field. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to spatial analysis. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
