The book is divided into three parts: basic concepts, advanced concepts and applications. Written by the most respected specialists in the field and thoroughly reviewed by the editors, it first lays out the fundamental problems in Location Science and provides the reader with basic background information on location theory. Part II covers advanced models and concepts, broadening and expanding on the content presented in Part I. It provides the reader with important tools to help them understand and solve real-world location problems. Part III is dedicated to linking Location Science with other areas like GIS, telecommunications, healthcare, rapid transit networks, districting problems and disaster events, presenting a wide range of applications. This part enables the reader to understand the role of facility location in such areas, as well as to learn how to handle realistic location problems. The book is intended for researchers working on theory and applications involving location problems and models. It is also suitable as a textbook for graduate courses on facility location.Operations researchDecision makingManagement scienceGeographical information systemsRegional economicsSpatial economicsOperations Research/Decision Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000Operations Research, Management Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M26024Geographical Information Systems/Cartographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J13000Regional/Spatial Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000Operations research.Decision making.Management science.Geographical information systems.Regional economics.Spatial economics.Operations Research/Decision Theory.Operations Research, Management Science.Geographical Information Systems/Cartography.Regional/Spatial Science.004.6Laporte Gilbertedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNickel Stefanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSaldanha da Gama Franciscoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298482203321Location science1742308UNINA
