Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing
or supplying energy. Each movement has an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a
destination and a nature which is linked with geographical attributes. Transport systems composed
of infrastructures, modes and terminals are so embedded in the socio-economic life of individuals,
institutions and corporations that they are often invisible to the consumer. This is paradoxical as the
perceived invisibility of transportation is derived from its efficiency. Understanding how mobility is
linked with geography is main the purpose of this book.
The third edition of The Geography of Transport Systems has been revised and updated to provide
an overview of the spatial aspects of transportation. This text provides more content related to
security, energy and environmental issues, as well as new and updated case studies, a revised
content structure and new figures. Each chapter covers a specific conceptual dimension including
networks, modes, terminals, freight transportation, urban transportation and environmental impacts
A final chapter contains core methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility,
spatial interactions, graph theory and Geographic Information Systems for Transportation (GIS-T).
This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview
of its concepts, methods and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains
useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases and links to further
reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans. This
text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those
interested in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering. |
