This paper presents a context-sensitive spatiotemporal model to simulate movement trajectories. The model incorporates both the correlated random walk and time-geography theories to generate a more realistic trajectory of an agent within its environment.

Spatial analysis mostly developed in an era when data was scarce and computational power was expensive. Consequently, traditional spatial analysis greatly simpli®es its representations of geography. The rise of geographic information science (GISci) and the changing nature of scienti®c questions at the end of the 20 century suggest a comprehensive re-examination of geographic representation in ...

New theoretical work on spatial concentration of industry – particularly the ‘new economic geography’ – has significantly helped us understanding why some regions develop more than others, why cities arise and where they are located. However, this work rarely incorporates Adam Smith’s observation that spatial differences in economic activity also reflect variations in physical geography, which ...
