Abstract

Network analysis in geography is a subdiscipline that has persisted from the earliest days of the science yet remains an active research area today. Network analysis has had an influence on practical applications and theoretical advances. A mathematical foundation for network analysis in graph theory and topology has led to methods for describing and measuring networks, for determining locations within networks, and for analyzing movement across networks. The broad interest in network analysis has encouraged its rapid adoption into geographic information systems and this, in turn, has engendered increased development of advanced network analytic techniques – notably network spatial statistics and linear referencing. Advances in network analysis continue today, with spatiotemporal network analysis and social‐network analysis being of particular interest across a broad set of application areas.
