A Technique for Constructing a Population and Urban Land Use Map

This paper, given originally before the Association of American Geographers in December, 1935, has been revised and brought up to date to meet a continuing interest in the subject. The author avails himself of this opportunity to express appreciation to Clarence E. Batschelet, Chief, Geography Division, Bureau of the Census, for valuable help in the original preparation and present revision of this paper. 1 The author developed this technique in 1931 in the course of his work on the secondary commercial centers of Cincinnati. Subsequently, he and others have used this technique in the study of urban markets. 2 See Population Analysis of Small Areas, Business Information Service, Office of Domestic Commerce, U. S.
