    This study applies spatial aggregation methods to gravity models for analyzing real-world spatial interaction. The research extends previous work to a larger scale, using data from Edmonton, Alberta.

    Area of Science:

    • Spatial analysis
    • Geographic information systems (GIS)
    • Urban planning

    Background:

    • Gravity models are fundamental in understanding spatial interaction.
    • Previous research established a methodology for analyzing spatial aggregation in these models.
    • Existing studies have been limited to smaller-scale examples.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To apply and extend an existing methodology for spatial aggregation analysis in gravity models.
    • To test the methodology on a larger, more realistic spatial interaction dataset.
    • To evaluate the impact of different aggregation levels on spatial interaction patterns.

    Main Methods:

    • Generation of seven distinct gravity models.
    • Application of these models to spatial interaction data from Edmonton, Alberta.
