This is an ideal course for personal study or learning with a teacher.Book and Cassette Course. Zusammenfassung Originally published in 1972. This book highlights this coherent area of scholarship under the headings of spatial point systems, networks, continuous distributions, partitioning and simulation. Seventeen authors present the body of spatial techniques necessary to enable the building of dynamic spatial models of landforms. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface Part 1: General 1.
