These models are becoming more popular as academics and policy makers recognise the value of place in research and policy making. Recent spatial microsimulation models have been used to analyse health and social disadvantage for small areas; and to look at the effect of policy change for small areas. This provides a powerful analysis tool for researchers and policy makers.   This book covers preparing the data for spatial microsimulation; a number of methods for both static and dynamic spatial microsimulation models; validation of the models to ensure the outputs are reasonable; and the future of spatial microsimulation. The book will be an essential handbook for any researcher or policy maker looking to design and create a spatial microsimulation model.   This book will also be useful to those policy makers who are commissioning a spatial microsimulation model, or looking to commission work using a spatial microsimulation model, as it provides information on the different methods in a non-technical way. 410 0$aUnderstanding Population Trends and Processes ;$v6 606 $aPopulation$xMathematical models 606 $aQuality of life$xResearch 615 0$aPopulation$xMathematical models. 615 0$aQuality of life$xResearch. 676 $a001.4/22 676 $a304.23 701 $aTanton$b Robert$01750479 701 $aEdwards$b Kimberley$01750480 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438340303321 996 $aSpatial microsimulation$94185119 997 $aUNINA
