The success of any journal is dependent upon excellent contributions from authors and meaningful review by qualified referees, and to this end GA has flourished over...

Area-to-point prediction under boundary conditions.
October 1, 2008... This article proposes a geostatistical solution for area-to-point spatial prediction (downscaling) taking into account boundary effects. Such effects are often poorly considered in downscaling, even though they often have significant impact on the results. The geostatistical approach proposed...

Analysis of a distribution of point events using the network-based quadrat method.
October 1, 2008... This study proposes a new quadrat method that can be applied to the study of point distributions in a network space. While the conventional planar quadrat method remain one of the most fundamental spatial analytical methods on a two-dimensional plane, its quadrats are usually identified by...

Locational equilibria in Weberian agglomeration.
October 1, 2008... A simple Weberian agglomesration is developed and then extended as an innovative fixed-charged, colocation model over a large set of locational possibilities. The model is applied to cases in which external economies (EE) arise due to colocation alone and also cases in which EE arise due to...

A "Caesarian," "Augustan," or "Justinian" worldview of theoretical and quantitative geography?(Report)

This is used to set the discussion platform for a...
