GEOG-130 Lecture Notes - Lecture 28: Paper Mill, Scale-Invariant Feature Transform, Iron Ore
Document Summary
Parts of west coast (la, san diego; portland oregon) Southern belt (tulsa, ok; new orleans, la) I ndustrial regions of east asia ( asian dragons ): Japan and south korea specialize in tech industry due to lack of resources. Situation factors: location factors related to the transportation of materials into and form a factory. Inputs may be parts or materials from other industry. If the weight or bulk of inputs is great, the industry may locate near the source of inputs. Seats (the company) built facility near car dealership so. Important factor to bulk reducing industries transportation is easy and simple. Build papermill by forrest so transportation is much easier and because product is reduced and easier to move. Makes more economic sense to put factory there because transportation is much more cost efficient. Copper is standard wiring used, good conductor and often safer than alternatives. When extraction occurs very little is actually copper.
