Gravity Model
Gravity Models are derived from Newton's Law of Gravity and are used to predict the interaction between a group of populated areas (sources) and a specific target among a group of potential targets, in terms of an attraction factor (weight)
CDB_Gravity is based on the model defined in Huff's Law of Shopper attraction (1963)
CDB_Gravity(t_id bigint[], t_geom geometry[], t_weight numeric[], s_id bigint[], s_geom geometry[], s_pop numeric[], target bigint, radius integer, minval numeric DEFAULT -10e307)
Arguments
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| t_id | bigint[] | Array of targets ID |
| t_geom | geometry[] | Array of targets' geometries |
| t_weight | numeric[] | Array of targets's weights |
| s_id | bigint[] | Array of sources ID |
| s_geom | geometry[] | Array of sources' geometries |
| s_pop | numeric[] | Array of sources's population |
| target | bigint | ID of the target under study |
| radius | integer | Radius in meters around the target under study that will be taken into account |
| minval (optional) | numeric | Lowest accepted value of weight, defaults to numeric min_value |
CDB_Gravity( target_query text, weight_column text, source_query text, pop_column text, target bigint, radius integer, minval numeric DEFAULT -10e307)
