Course description

This course looks at geographical theories & models of human spatial behaviour. It will examine human activities in time & space, including case studies relating to health, residential location and journey to work, crime and anti-social behaviour, travel & transport, consumer behaviour & retailing. The course will explore both empirical material of spatial behaviour in these contexts and GIS and modelling approaches to effect better planning solutions (especially in relation to facility location).
