The shape of space : applying geometric morphometrics to geographic data

Auteur :
WALLACE, R.G.

Description :
An example of warps analysis as applied to geographic data is presented. It focuses on the AIDS epidemic in two boroughs of New York City. Female adult AIDS incidence and percentage newborns exposed to HIV, by zip code for the years 1991-98, are used to generate annual configurations within an ecological parameter space. A warps analysis of those configurations indicates a clear shift in the relative positions of Manhattan zip codes during the 1990s.
