Abstract
The spatial correlation analysis is proposed to analyze urban activities quantitatively. This paper describes an extension of spatial correlation analysis defined in a two-dimensional Euclidean space to a roadnetwork space. We discuss a method for applying spatial correlation analysis to a road-network space and illustrate the details of computation methods. By using actual GIS data as numerical examples, a comparison of the results from the Euclidean distance and the network distance is shown. Also, we demonstrate some case studies using a variety of computation methods.
