“…The Highest urban population density and very low correlation with crime is indicates daily mobility of peoples is very high. Thus the population density is tend changing, but agglomerate around central business district (Hartman, 1950).…”

Abstract:This study aims to determine various factors are affected crime occurrence and discover crime risk distribution in Bandung using geographic information system (GIS) technology. It is to achieve suitable action against crime for mutual security. As quantitative research, the correlation of each factor is obtained from statistical test, then a decile rule used to know the value distribution. Eastman equation require score and weight from the correlation coefficient and value distribution for overlay analysis using GIS software to result crime risk distribution in Bandung. Correlation test identified that historical crime accidents, public facilities, and residence domination are most influence crime occurs, because crime needs suitable condition like place, time, and target. The resulted map of crime risk distribution shows 39.02 and 16.69 percent or more than half area of Bandung has very high and high risk. Based on the analysis, crime risk area agglomerate in the western and central of city are known as central business district. In addition, the temporal pattern of crime risk increase at 18.00 to 24.00 pm who coverage almost three-fifths area of the city when citizen activity is highly.

“…Vielfach dient Christallers visuelle Repräsentation dabei als Basis für andere Visualisierungen. Sei es, dass andere Geometrien präferiert werden (Trewartha, 1943;Harris und Ullman, 1945;Hartman, 1950) oder dass die Hexagonalstruktur entlang anderer Dimensionen transformiert wird, wie es Isard bezogen auf einen nicht mehr homogen bevölkerten Raum und ausgehend von Lösch vorschlägt (Isard, 1956:272). Die Hexagonale Struktur wird hier zu etwas, mit dem man rechnen kann, etwas das nicht von der Karte oder der Theorie abgeleitet, sondern potenziell errechnet ist, etwa durch die Verschränkung räumlicher Muster mit der Bevölkerungsver-teilung in einem System (Abb.…”

Abstract. Publications from the early quantitative revolution in geography saw a significant change in the use of visual material. While the old regionalist paradigm of "Länderkunde" was dominated by images of "geographical individuals" the new geography was dominated by abstract models and visualized laws and theories. Overall visual material gains in importance, both quantitatively and qualitatively. This paper follows the changed functions, possibilities and promises of visualizing epistemic things in geography's new paradigm. This is done by following the translations, transformations and mobilizations of the famous hexagon Walter Christaller published in his 1933 "Theory of central places in South Germany". Since the 1940s this Hexagon has become not only an icon of the new geography, but an instrument for making quantitative-theoretical thinking in the geography plausible and at the same time to build a visual bridge between the old and the new geography.

“…The great majority of these studies were based on a subjective delimitation of the CBD, such as the work of G. Hartman (1950) Calculation of the Central Business Height Index (CBHI) and the Central Business Intensity Index (CBII). CBHI is obtained by dividing the total floor area of all central business uses by the total ground floor area of the block.…”

The article aims at exploring the literature on town centre delimitation methods over the last sixty years. Specifically, the first section explores the content of the term town centre, while the second one proposes an organisation of town centre delimitation research in three main periods. The third section comprises the main corpus of the article, as several town centre delimitation methodologies of the last sixty years are presented and discussed. For their presentation, a three tiered analysis is introduced. In the first stage the decisions of researchers regarding centrality estimators are discussed, in the second stage the study focuses on the choices of the spatial units, in which the chosen variables will be studied, and in the third stage the study discusses the methods that are used to characterise each of the studied spatial units as central versus non-central. Based on the analysis, the article concludes that town centre delimitation is an issue which transcends various scientific disciplines and that each of these disciplines comprehends the centre of a town in a unique way. Thus, future methods of town centre delimitation should take into account the choices made in each of the three stages presented above, and should also link the above choices to the objectives and the theoretical context of the study.
