USO DO SOLO E PADRÕES DE VIAGEM:

UMA ANÁLISE METODOLÓGICA BASEADA EM ESTUDOS DE CASO

Abstract

This paper aims to identify and study some methodologies used to annalise the travel behaviour from land usage, primarily focusing on purchase-motivated travels. The article points out three case studies in different cities aiming to contribute to the setup of a specific methodology destined to study medium-sized towns. Additionally, this paper counts on a preliminary analysis from a pilot carried out in the city of Uberlândia-Brazil. Spatial analysis based on Big Data can significantly contribute to the development of public policies and land usage laws seeking to achieve sustainable development of these cities
