ABSTRACT

Spatial decision making is an everyday activity, common to individuals and organizations. People make decisions influenced by geography when they choose a store to shop, a route to drive, a path to jog, or a neighborhood for a place to live, to name but a few. Organizations are not much different in this respect. They take into account the realities of spatial

organization when selecting a site, choosing a land development strategy, allocating resources for public health, and managing infrastructures for transportation or public utilities.
