<p class="AbstractTitle">Ritel modern di Kota Semarang berkembang pesat, sehingga penentuan lokasinya perlu diperhatikan agar dapat memberikan pelayanan yang efisien. Dalam menentukan lokasi ritel baik, faktor aksesibilitas menjadi penting mudah terjangkau oleh pengunjung. Analisis <em>space syntax</em> merupakan alat digunakan untuk menganalisis melalui 3 variabel utama yaitu...

BACKGROUND Neighborhood walkability has been shown to be associated with walking behavior. However, the availability of geographical data necessary to construct it remains a limitation. Building on the concept of space syntax, we propose an alternative walkability index, space syntax walkability (SSW). This study examined associations of the full walkability index and SSW with walking for trans...

We report about universality of rank-integration distributions of open spaces in city space syntax similar to the famous rank-size distributions of cities (Zipf's law). We also demonstrate that the degree of choice an open space represents for other spaces directly linked to it in a city follows a power law statistic. Universal statistical behavior of space syntax measures uncovers the universa...

Although many methods of spatial analysis have been developed for a better understanding and modelling of urban space analysis, there is still a need for exploration of new analytical techniques for modelling urban spaces. Space Syntax models the spatial configurations of urban spaces by using a connectivity graph representation. Such a configuration of space identifies patterns that can be use...

A number of shortcomings of space syntaxöa well-known technique of urban analysisöwere recently discussed in the scientific literature. They are mostly traceable to the reliance in space syntax on the `axial map': a simplified line-of-sight description of the city, which is then analysed based on its topology. This paper explores how another type of urban representationsönamely the urban digita...
