“…While Gautschi (1981) and Eppli and Shilling (1996) found that the distance parameter was overstated, Lee and Pace (2005) found the parameter was understated. Fotheringham (1981) suggested that the parameter is a function of spatial structure.…”

PrefaceThis book is the final result of a number of incidents that occurred to us while discussing location issues with colleagues at conferences. Frequently we attended presentations, in which the authors quoted the well-known references that helped to make the discipline what it is today. Upon further inquiry, though, it turned out that some of these colleagues had never actually read the original papers. We then discussed among ourselves which contributions could be credited with shaping the field. And, lo and behold, we found that we, too, had neglected to read some of the papers that form the foundation of our science. Whether it was laziness or other things that got in the way, it had become clear that something had to be done. Our first thought was to collect the original contributions (once we could agree on what they were) and reprint them. When discussing this possibility with a publisher, we immediately ran into a roadblock in the form of copyright. While this appeared to have stopped our enthusiastic effort dead in its tracks, we kept on collecting and reading what we considered original contributions.This went on until we met Camille Price, who suggested that, rather than reprinting the original contributions, we should invite some of the leaders in our field and ask them to describe the original contribution, explain and interpret it, and comment on the impact that it had to the field. This was, of course, an excellent idea, and the response by our colleagues to our pertinent requests was equally enthusiastic. What you hold in your hands is the result of this effort.In other words, the purpose of this book is to provide easy access to the main contributions to location theory. The book is organized as follows. The introductory chapter provides an overview of some of the many facets of location analysis. This is followed by contributions in the main three fields of inquiry: minisum, minimax, and covering problems. The next chapters are part of an ever-growing list of nonstandard location models: models including competitive components, those that locate undesirable facilities, those with probabilistic features, and those that allow interactions between facilities. The following chapters discuss solution techniques: after a discussion of exact and heuristic techniques, we devote an entire chapter to Weiszfeld's method, and another to Lagrangean techniques. The last chapters of this book deal with the spheres of influence that the facilities generate and that attract viii customers to them, an...

“…Spatial interaction models and their application to retail site selection are described in Czech geographic literature, namely in the work of Maryáš (1983Maryáš ( , 1988, who is one of the most important authors. Lee and Pace (2005) refer to the studies by Gautschi (1981) Okoruwa et al (1988Okoruwa et al ( , 1994, as well as Eppli and Shilling (1996), which apply the Reilly gravitational model to specific cases. The results of the conducted studies vary in the importance that they attach to the factors of distance and store size.…”

Retail stores are a common part of our everyday life. We focus on the site selection of supermarkets and hypermarkets in Ústí nad Labem and analyze the role of selected factors that drive the site selection of these super/hypermarkets. The role of the factors is verified by a correlation analysis. In the city of Ústí nad Labem, retail units of the supermarket or hypermarket type are unevenly distributed and are concentrated in the more central areas of the city. The location of stores has no power association with monitored factors. The result is certainly strongly influenced by the lack in availability of relevant data. Key words: retail, location factors, Reilly's model Highlights for public administration, management and planning:• location of retail centers does not display a significant correlation with the number of inhabitants living in a location • commuting distances of retail centers frequently overlap, forcing their competitiveness • future effort must be aimed at database building for analyses of further location factors

“…Zde je nutné poznamenat, že zmiňované práce často nejsou jen produktem geografů, ale také prostorových ekonomů. Lee a Pace (2005) se např. zabývají prostorovou distribucí maloobchodního obratu mezi nákupní centra v souvislosti s jejich vzájemnou lokací na příkladě amerického Houstonu; v jiné studii Baray a Cliquet (2007) Podle účelů a zaměření našich výzkumů jsme volili jednotlivé způsoby šetře-ní i jejich kombinace (kromě dotazování přes základní školy).…”
