As a basis for city planning and architectural design work, a solid understanding of the existing and surrounding urban structures is indispensable. This volume not only explains the possible approaches; it also describes in practical terms how to implement those approaches in the areas analyzed and how to evaluate the data one has collected.

Quantitative Geography: The Basics is the perfect introduction for undergraduates beginning any quantitative methods course. Written by world-leading experts, and balancing theory with application, the Spatial Analytics and GIS series provides a user-friendly introduction to these methods for students in the geosciences, geographical information science and quantitative social science

This is an introductory textbook on spatial analysis and spatial statistics through GIS. Each chapter presents methods and metrics, explains how to interpret results, and provides worked examples. This is a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers analyzing geospatial data through a spatial analysis lens, including those using GIS in the environmental sciences, geography, and social sciences.

This book highlights major quantitative and qualitative methods and approaches used in the field of urban analysis. The book is unique in its focus on Australian examples and subject matter, presented by recognized experts in the field.

This book, specifically designed for today's engineering or applied environmental science students, is updated with the latest developments and current, relevant case studies from across the globe.

This books helps readers understand the most powerful, state-of-the-art spatial econometric methods, focusing particularly on urban research problems. The methods represent a cluster of potentially transformational socio-economic modeling tools that allow researchers to capture real-time and high-resolution information to potentially reveal new socioeconomic dynamics within urban populations. Each method, written by leading exponents of the discipline, uses real-time urban big data to solve research problems in spatial science.
