Book Geographic Information System   Spatial Analyses In Real Estate

Download or read book Geographic Information System Spatial Analyses In Real Estate written by Abdul Hamid Mar Iman and published by Penerbit UTM Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) now widely available on various computer-based platforms has benefitted numerous fields of discipline, including real estate. Known for its versatility as an integrated system consisting of various functions, GIS is particularly appreciated for its spatial analysis capabilities. As such, GIS is of particular importance to real estate analyses. Inherently spatial, various real estate problems can be more easily dealt with by desynthesising their very essence of concept with respect to location. In this context, GIS provides all the capabilities to capture, store, retrieve, manipulate, analyse, and display geographic data associated with real estate phenomena. This book is written to provide readers with some examples of such phenomena with which GIS can be used to give some of the answers needed. It demonstrates the use of GIS in dealing with a myriad of location analyses in real estate using mainly local examples in Malaysia, with particular interest in analyses related to urban parking space, market segmentation, site suitability, house price, valuation and appraisal.

Book Using a GIS for Real Estate Market Analysis

Download or read book Using a GIS for Real Estate Market Analysis written by John M. Clapp and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many databases used for real estate market analysis are not available at the address level. For example, information on employment and unemployment may be available only for labor market areas; and Census data is typically tabulated for blocks or higher levels of spatial aggregation. A Geographic Information System (GIS) associates these spatially aggregated data with the geographical center of the area. This poses special problems when we use a GIS to evaluate linkages between supply and demand. This article presents some solutions to this problem; methods that are relatively easy to implement on a GIS are emphasized. A GIS can be used to calculate a theoretical average travel distance to the population in the geographical area. We propose ways to determine when these theoretical distances are inadequate approximations; and we provide alternatives for these situations.

Book Spatial Analysis And GIS

Download or read book Spatial Analysis And GIS written by S Fotheringham and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-04-08 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographic information systems represent an exciting and rapidly expanding technology via which spatial data may be captured, stored, retrieved, displayed, manipulated and analysed. Applications of this technology include detailed inventories of land use parcels. Spatial patterns of disease, geodemographics, environmental management and macroscale inventories of global resources. The impetus for this book is the relative lack of research into the integration of spatial analysis and GIS, and the potential benefits in developing such an integration. From a GIS perspective, there is an increasing demand for systems that do something other than display and organize data. From a spatial analytical perspective, there are advantages to linking statistical methods and mathematical models to the database and display capabilities of a GIS. Although the GIS may not be absolutely necessary for spatial analysis, it can facilitate such an analysis and moreover provide insights that might otherwise have been missed. The contributions to the book tell us where we are and where we ought to be going. It suggests that the integration of spatial analysis and GIS will stimulate interest in quantitative spatial science, particularly exploratory and visual types of analysis and represents a unique statement of the state-of-the-art issues in integration and interface.

Book Geospatial Analysis and Modelling of Urban Structure and Dynamics

Download or read book Geospatial Analysis and Modelling of Urban Structure and Dynamics written by Bin Jiang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-06-16 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Coming of Age: Geospatial Analysis and Modelling in the Early Twenty First Century Forty years ago when spatial analysis first emerged as a distinct theme within geography’s quantitative revolution, the focus was largely on consistent methods for measuring spatial correlation. The concept of spatial au- correlation took pride of place, mirroring concerns in time-series analysis about similar kinds of dependence known to distort the standard probability theory used to derive appropriate statistics. Early applications of spatial correlation tended to reflect geographical patterns expressed as points. The perspective taken on such analytical thinking was founded on induction, the search for pattern in data with a view to suggesting appropriate hypotheses which could subsequently be tested. In parallel but using very different techniques came the development of a more deductive style of analysis based on modelling and thence simulation. Here the focus was on translating prior theory into forms for generating testable predictions whose outcomes could be compared with observations about some system or phenomenon of interest. In the intervening years, spatial analysis has broadened to embrace both inductive and deductive approaches, often combining both in different mixes for the variety of problems to which it is now applied.

Book Geospatial Analysis for Real Estate Valuation Models in Business

Download or read book Geospatial Analysis for Real Estate Valuation Models in Business written by Alexander Carter and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of a major contemporary issue in real estate valuation - the use of geographical data to improve valuation outcomes. The spatial nature of real estate data allow the development of specialized models that increase the likelihood for better predictions. This chapter examines how using spatial data, with geographical information systems (GIS), can improve the accuracy of real estate valuation models. Contemporary theory in economics, planning, housing, and appraisal influences the model application that underlies the new field of GIScience and the use of Automated Valuation Models (AVMs) in practice. Exploratory methods of model development are also considered in the presentation of a case study along with a discussion of the changing history, development and future of AVMs and GIS.

Book Valuing the Built Environment

Download or read book Valuing the Built Environment written by Scott Orford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically assesses the hedonic pricing technique as a method of imputing monetary values for the implicit attributes of housing. The hedonic technique is widely used, particularly in the US, but increasingly in Europe and Asia and has proved to yield important results and influence cost-benefit analysis. Scott Orford breaks new ground in this volume by exploring hedonic house price models within a geographical rather than purely economic context. He reevaluates the microeconomic theory of housing markets and concludes that only by treating housing market dynamics as inherently spatial can empirical results conform to the theory that underpins them. He also makes conclusions with respect to locational externalities, which have important implications as to how the built environment is valued.
