The AGW Spatial Interaction Workstation

Despite the advances made in the development of computer models of urban and regional systems the lack of an appropriate software package incorporating much of this work prevents the popularisation and widespread use of these methods. In statistical analysis the availability of packages such as SPSSX, GLIM, SAS, etc have enabled undergraduates, academics, and professionals to access easily a wide range of techniques. The authors feel that a similar type of package would have tremendous appeal both in the public and in the private sector. In this paper they outline their view of what this modelling package would consist of and how it could be constructed as a software system for a personal computer
