Abstract:

An approach to the individual-based description of segregation phenomena is proposed. The proposed framework is based on hierarchical representation of urban residential space and the estimation and comparison of individual spatial segregation at different levels of the hierarchy.

Keywords: residential distribution, local segregation measures, GIS, population census
