[101] Wide-area spatial structure and its transformation of station front retail business in the suburbs of the grater Tokyo area
Keywords:retail store, suburb stations of Tokyo, adjacent station, clustering, spatial autocorrelation analysis
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the nature and trends of the retail business around stations focusing on the network in the suburbs of the grater Tokyo area. The target is set to a very wide range, and the phenomenon that was invisible in the research on a small area is exposed. First, we clustered stations. As a result, it was visualized that the functions are separated among stations with high bases and stations without bases in the retail industry. And, we were able to grasp from the actual space some serious tendencies. Furthermore, spatial autocorrelation analysis was performed according to the number of stores by industry. We quantitatively showed how the division of functions is progressing from Global Moran's I to stations in the suburbs of the Tokyo metropolitan area as a whole. We also established a method for quantitatively and locally capturing them from Local Moran's I.
