The focus of this book is the modeling of the location of economic activities, measured in terms of employment, in land-use and transportation systems. These measures are key inputs to models at intra-urban scales of the flows of persons and goods for both urban and transport planning.

Economic activities can be defined in terms of jobs or private-sector firms and public service organisations.
