This title provides a broad overview of the different types of
models used in advanced spatial analysis. The models concern
spatial organization, location factors and spatial interaction
patterns from both static and dynamic perspectives.
Each chapter gives a broad overview of the subject, covering
both theoretical developments and practical applications. The
advantages of an interdisciplinary approach are illustrated in the
way that the viewpoint of each of the individual disciplines are
brought together when considering questions relevant to spatial
analysis.
The authors of the chapters come from a range of different
disciplines (geography, economy, hydrology, ecology, etc.) and are
specialists in their field. They use a range of methods and
modeling tools developed in mathematics, statistics, artificial
intelligence and physics.
