    Area of Science:

    • Consumer behavior analysis
    • Geospatial data analytics
    • Statistical methodology

    Background:

    • Traditional consumer data analysis often lacks spatial and frequency-based insights.
    • Understanding consumer service utilization patterns is crucial for service providers.
    • Existing methods may not fully capture the dynamics of service access in diverse geographic settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and explain the novel vector resolution method for consumer data analysis.
    • To demonstrate the application of vector resolution in comparing consumer service patterns.
    • To highlight the adaptability of the methodology across different data sources.

    Main Methods:

    • Vectors are constructed using two key components: frequency of service use and geographic direction from consumer origin to service point.
    • Data for the study were collected from a probability sample survey of rural households in southern Utah.
    • The methodology involves calculating and analyzing these derived vectors to identify patterns.

    Main Results:

    • The study successfully derived vectors representing consumer service usage patterns.
    • Analysis of these vectors provides a new lens for comparing service utilization.
    • The findings illustrate the potential for identifying distinct consumer behavior patterns.

    Conclusions:

    • Vector resolution offers a robust and innovative approach to analyzing consumer data.
    • The methodology is versatile and applicable to various consumer services and data types.
    • This technique enhances the understanding of consumer-service interactions, particularly in geographic contexts.
