| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The status and issues involved in the use of geographic information systems and science (GIS) in economics are characterized by investigating GIS-related literature and conducting questionnaire surveys. I investigated GIS functions and socioeconomic spatial data and developed the methods of the use of GIS and spatial data in economic and policy analysis. Tutorial sessions about the use of GIS in economic analysis are held at the Japanese Economic Association Annual Meeting and the Annual Conference of Applied Regional Science Conference. An introductory book about the use of GIS in economic and policy analysis is published. Analyses of policy issues, such as the development of childcare centers and female employment and earthquake disaster reconstruction, are conducted using GIS and spatial data.
