  • Digital Transition and New Forms of Spatial Inequality

    Open AccessTiit Tammaru, Kadi Kalm et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2026

    This thematic issue examines how digital transition reshapes spatial inequalities by reconfiguring relationships between people, places, and opportunities. We frame the contributions around three interrelated mechanisms—place attractiveness, access to opportunities, and the coordination of activities— that operate through housing and labour markets. Digital transition reshapes all three mechanisms, generating spatially uneven outcomes across the …

  • Which Regions Gain the Most From Digital Transition

    Open AccessAnto Aasa, Rūta Ubarevičienė et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2026Citada por: 1

    Since the outbreak of Covid‐19, the digital transition has intensified globally. This study examines its spatial dynamics by focusing on the distribution of fast internet across settlements and how it relates to the location of IT companies and the residential patterns of IT workers. While existing research often emphasizes the urban–rural divide, we go beyond this by adopting a full‐country approach at a fine spatial scale and by distinguishing …

  • Methodological framework for producing national tourism statistics from mobile positioning data

    Open AccessErki Saluveer, Janika Raun et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Tourism Research2020Citada por: 3Referencias: 27

    Due to the ongoing increase in daily mobility, reductions in border controls, and new trends in tourism, it is important to find new ways to record comprehensively the growing number of tourists. This paper describes a method of extracting cross-border statistics on tourism from roaming call activities found within passive mobile positioning data. Eesti Pank (the central bank of Estonia) has been using these data and methodology since 2008 to cal…

  • Application of mobile phone location data in mapping of commuting patterns and functional regionalization

    This paper introduces the principles and methodology of the mobile-positioning-based online tourism monitoring tool “Positium Barometer” (http://www.positium.com/barometer/tourism/). The system has been developed, with a geographical focus on urban and regional planning and tourism management, to obtain statistical overviews and standardized analyses about the space-time behavior of tourists. The system uses as source data mobile operators' log f…

  • Mobile Positioning in Space–Time Behaviour Studies

    Rein Ahas, Anto Aasa et al.ARTICLECartography and Geographic…2007Citada por: 4

    The paper introduces methods and applications of the mobile positioning-based social positioning method in geography. The social positioning method (SPM) studies space–time behavior by analyzing the location coordinates of mobile phones and the social characteristics of the people carrying them. We describe the experience gained from the SPM pilot studies carried out in Estonia from 2003 to 2006. The results demonstrate that mobile positioning-ba…

  • Seasonal Indicators and Seasons of Estonian Landscapes

    Rein Ahas, Anto Aasa et al.ARTICLELandscape Research2005Citada por: 4Referencias: 8

    Seasonality and seasons of Estonian landscapes are analysed using selected natural and social indicators of urban and rural landscapes. Seasonality has a great influence on the ecological and visual features of landscapes; seasonal variability is especially great in temperate climate zones where relatively cold winters alternate with warm summers. The indicators that are suitable for describing the seasonality of landscapes are natural parameters…
