Recall: last class we talked about: space, locations, places, distance, measures of spatial distributions & relationships. Today: other key concepts or tools in human geography (see ch. Concepts: spatial interaction: spatial interaction: a measure of the amount or movement between two or more locations. Interaction is there between two places. (movement of ppl, movement of goods, data, etc: everything is related to everything else but near things are more related than distant things. , the influence of distance. Concepts: spatial interaction (e. g. ) y m o n o c. A generalized framework n o i t c a r e t n. Concepts: distance decay & friction of distance: distance decay: decline of an activity or function with increasing distance, friction of distance: effect on interactions y m o n o c.
