4 kwi 2021 · We discuss the nature of processes relating to human behaviour and how to model such processes when they vary over space. In so doing, we describe the role of local modelling and how the bandwidth parameter, a component of multiscale geographically weighted regression, can inform on the spatial scale over which processes are relatively constant.
29 lip 2019 · Structure, process and mechanism in causal analysis. This formulation of mechanism and process allows for meso-level concepts (processes) to be situated in multi-scalar analyses involving multiple actors and institutions at the general level.

Specific notions of space and often also time underlie every GIS application. This chapter reviews the conceptual roots of space and time representations in the four traditional disciplines of geography, mathematics, philosophy, and physics, recently augmented by cognitive and sociocultural perspectives.
