“…In addition to the statistical approach, we explored the previous studies to support 50 m grids. They argued not only that the tendency of people to shop at nearby locations leads to the agglomeration of retailers but also that 50 m can properly examine relationships between different retail locations 1 , 38 – 40 . This underlines that the 50 m grid is the optimal size for delineating commercial boundaries.…”

“…It is important to compare the identified commercial boundaries and previously generated areas in order to validate the commercial boundaries. For the validation process of these commercial boundaries, we employed several datasets, including the CDRC US Retail Centre Boundaries 1 , 38 , downtown boundaries based on job density 4 , and Commercial Centre (CC) and Central Business Districts (CBD) 5 . While the downtown, CC, and CBD boundaries cover only select major cities in major metropolitan areas, the US retail centre data encompasses the entire United States territory.…”

“…In addition, compared with CDRC US retail centres, the advantage of commercial boundaries is that it is a more comprehensive approach to identifying the commercially distinct areas; it also allows the investigation of commercial boundaries in Canadian metropolitan areas. Although CDRC US retail centres considered retail, services (Depository Credit Intermediation, Insurance Carriers, Automotive Repair and Maintenance, and Personal Care Services), and leisure POIs to identify the boundaries 1 , 38 , diverse commercial activities were not represented. In particular, the commercial boundaries established in this study encompassed not only the offices and services related to daily life but also professional and admin services.…”

The purpose of this study is to define the geographic boundaries of commercial areas by creating a consistent definition, combining various commercial area types, including downtowns, retail centres, financial districts, and other employment subcentres. Our research involved the collection of office, retail and job density data from 69 metropolitan regions across USA and Canada. Using this data, we conducted an unsupervised image segmentation model and clustering methods to identify distinctive commercial geographic boundaries. As a result, we identified 23,751 commercial areas, providing a detailed perspective on the commercial landscape of metropolitan areas in the USA and Canada. In addition, the generated boundaries were successfully validated through comparison with previously established commerce-related boundaries. The output of this study has implications for urban and regional planning and economic development, delivering valuable insights into the overall commercial geography in the region. The commercial boundary and used codes are freely available on the School of Cities Github, and users can reuse, reproduce and modify the boundaries.

“…Bousquin identified an advantage of H3; neighbours of a cell can be determined directly from the cell index and do not need to be stored in a separate table. The authors of 'Integrating the Who, What, and Where of U.S. Retail Center Geographies' used H3 for an analysis of retail centres in the United States (Ballantyne, Singleton, Dolega and Macdonald, 2022). Three datasets, more than three million retails places points and their building footprints, and retail land-use polygons from OpenStreetMap, were aggregated to an H3 grid at resolution 11.…”

“…Economic geography and spatial-scale research on retail formats actively reflect societal development and changes [1]. In 2023, China's total retail sales of consumer goods reached 47.15 trillion yuan, an increase of 7.5% from 2022, with final consumption expenditures contributing 82.5% to GDP growth [2].…”

Analyses of urban hierarchy and scale distribution are crucial in urban research, as they examine the laws of urban development and the functional layout of urban spatial systems. However, previous studies have focused on the macro-spatial distribution of the economy, businesses, and population at the regional level, whereas systematic research on the scale distribution of retail formats in central urban areas is lacking. Therefore, this study investigated the hierarchical scale distribution of retail formats in the top ten cities in China by GDP, using the Public Service Facilities Index Method to define central district boundaries, using scale as an epistemological framework of order and analyzing the spatial distribution patterns of retail formats. The results revealed that the spatial hierarchical scale follows a power law within a certain range; the spatial distribution exhibits stage characteristics, providing a quantitative method for defining retail centres; and the dominant functions, development directions, and morphological characteristics of central districts influence the hierarchical scale distribution of retail formats.
