Towards a relational view on industrial location theory
In this paper a relational view on industrial location theory is put forward. Such an approach implies that site selection and suitability should be defined and modelled as a matching problem. It involves taking into account the links between the spatial production requirements of an economic activity and the characteristics of a potential production environment. Apart from introducing various model building requirements, an adequate relational matching formalism is advanced. In this respect, use is made of the decision table approach.
