Commuting and fuzzy logic: an essay of modeling and cartographical representation.
De Oliveira Neves, Gwendoline
This paper presents an essay of modeling and cartographical representation of commuting based upon the conceptual and formal scheme of fuzzy set theory. Starting from a review of the new theoretical and methodological developments in fuzzy logic, it is posed the possibilities offered to get a better understanding of the spatial organization in Andalusia. In the first part it is formalized, by means of fuzzy operators, the membership level of Andalusian municipalities as they are expressed by commuting. In the second one, the results are represented cartographically, offering a first approach to the regional spatial organization. Evaluated some weakness of traditional cartographical interpolation methods, in the last section, an application of geostatistical interpolation techniques -Kriging method- is explored.
