“…Jiwattanakulpaisarn et al (2010) found that increased accessibility is a determinant of state employment growth in the services sector. Song et al (2012) found that accessibility is closely linked to industrial agglomerations in the Seoul metropolitan area. In addition, several authors have analyzed the effect of accessibility on labor supply (see e.g.…”

This paper analyzes the relationship between freight accessibility and logistics employment in the US. It develops an accessibility measure relevant for logistics companies based on a gravity model. This allows to analyze accessibility of US counties focusing on four different modes of transportation: road, rail, air, and maritime. Using a Partial Least Squares model, these four different freight accessibility measures are combined into two constructs, continental and intercontinental freight accessibility, and related to logistics employment, differentiating counties inside metropolitan areas from those outside. Results show that highly accessible non-metropolitan counties attract more logistics employment than other non-metropolitan counties. In metropolitan counties, no significant relationship was found between freight accessibility and logistics employment. This is primarily explained by the highly significant relations of both freight accessibility and logistics employment with county population.

“…Most empirical studies from economic geography have predefined industrial agglomeration based on the authors' knowledge of the region, rather than defining it on a statistical basis (Song, Lee, Anderson, & Lakshmanan, 2012). Such qualitative distinction may work fairly well if industrial agglomerations are identified at a national or international level.…”

This research describes the spatial layout of convention facilities in Beijing through the application of ArcGIS analysis software. The minimum distance points index, kernel density estimation, and radius of gyration methods were used to visualize the distributions and relationships of convention facilities, tourism scenic spots, and commercial and service facilities. Convention facilities were found to have a spatial agglomeration pattern and an uneven distribution within Beijing. Convention facilities and tourism scenic spots were closely spatially related. Most of the distances between convention facilities and tourism scenic spots were within a half-an-hour walking distance or 20 minutes by public transport. Beijing's convention venues and commercial and service facilities were even more closely clustered; most within less than 10 minutes on foot. This research contributes by applying geographic research methods to planning and problem solving in convention tourism. The spatial description of 192 convention facilities is also a contribution to learning about the general development situation in one of the world's top convention destinations.

“…They studied total flow (the sum of arrivals and departures), differential flow, and flow ratio variation in these clusters for a time of day segments. In another study, Song et al identified the type of industrial agglomerations and analyzed each of these orientations with a respect to different transportation modes assess relation with transport accessibility [26]. This study gauged the proximity of agglomerations to different transport modes to access the source of flow and importance of transport accessibility for industry types.…”

Analyzing public movement in transportation networks in a city is significant in understanding the life of citizen and making improved city plans for the future. This study focuses on investigating the flow orientation of major activity regions based on smart card transit data. The flow orientation based on the real movements such as transit data can provide the easiest way of understanding public movement in the complicated transportation networks. First, high inflow regions (HIRs) are identified from transit data for morning and evening peak hours. The morning and evening HIRs are used to represent major activity regions for major daytime activities and residential areas, respectively. Second, the directional orientation of flow is then derived through the directional inflow vectors of the HIRs to show the bias in directional orientation and compare flow orientation among major activity regions. Finally, clustering analysis for HIRs is applied to capture the main patterns of flow orientations in the city and visualize the patterns on the map. The proposed methodology was illustrated with smart card transit data of bus and subway transportation networks in Seoul, Korea. Some remarkable patterns in the distribution of movements and orientations were found inside the city. The proposed methodology is useful since it unfolds the complexity and makes it easy to understand the main movement patterns in terms of flow orientation.
