Description - Forecasting Techniques For Urb by Brian Field
This work is an introduction to the various analytical techniques which have been developed and applied in urban and regional analysis in planning practice. It is a practical text which offers students and practitioners an overview of the selected techniques supported by an appropriate collection of worked examples. The subjects covered are populaton, housing, employment, transport, shopping, recreation and integrated forecasting. Each technique, placed in the context of policy formulation and political matters, is presented both verbally and mathematically, and its operating characteristics are illustrated with detailed but simple practical examples. The authors have adopted a critical approach throughout - the techniques are set in a policy context and their practical limitations are identified. This is a concise, practical handbook for students of town planning, urban geography, regional and urban economics, estate management, housing, architecture and policy studies, who would like the difficult techniques used in urban and regional analysis demystified and explained in a simple, intelligible way.
