title = "Scale, population, and spatial analysis: A methodological investigation",
abstract = "The analysis of aggregated data introduces challenges in spatial analysis which has been described as the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP). MAUP consists of two distinct but related research problems: scale effects and zoning effects. Various challenges accompany the science of aggregating phenomena into units that can be analyzed; the most salient of these challenges encompass theory, data sources, and methodology.",
