Stephen:
Please send any discussion notes, etc. I am just begining to get involved in a statwide planning process that is concerned with urban land use, its relationships to transportation and other infrastructure, green belts, etc. Sound familiar? I hope to gradually introduce some advanced planning concepts and materials....slowly. I'll send you some stuff by Landis and others that you might find interesting. Check out the following web site for some interesting stuff on urban spacio-temporal structures. http://www.ncgia.ucsb.edu/conf/BALTIMORE/authors/janelle/paper.html Gus At 06:45 PM 3/4/2003 -0700, you wrote: > Hello! a presentation by Stephen Guerin (title and abstract of the >presentation below).
