Abstract
Urban night vitality is a manifestation of a city's diverse life and economic prosperity. However, few existing studies pay attention to urban night vitality. Furthermore, large spatial scale research of urban night vitality remains scarce. To fill these gaps, this empirical study on the urban night vitality of central Shanghai is based on fine-grained mobile phone signaling data and other multisource data. The objective of this study is twofold. First, mobile phone signaling data (with refined spatiotemporal resolutions) is applied to measure urban night vitality on a city-level spatial scale. Second, the spatial lag model is utilized to identify factors that influence urban night vitality. The results indicate that urban vitality presents a stronger commercially driven spatial agglomeration pattern during the night, and the urban night vitality of young people has a more concentrated spatial pattern than that of middle-aged and older people. Furthermore, the spatial agglomeration pattern of urban night vitality diminishes as time passes. The results of the spatial lag model reveal that night businesses and mixed land use are significantly and positively related to urban night vitality. Specifically, bars and consumption levels of stores have the highest relative significance, followed by mixed land use. These findings illuminate the understanding of the spatiotemporal characteristics of urban night vitality, which has universal significance.

Description
The journal has an applied focus: it actively promotes the importance of geographical research in real world settings
It is policy-relevant: it seeks both a readership and contributions from practitioners as well as academics
The substantive foundation is spatial analysis: the use of quantitative techniques to identify patterns and processes within geographic environments
The combination of these points, which are fully reflected in the naming of the journal, establishes a unique position in the marketplace.
RationaleA geographical perspective has always been crucial to the understanding of the social and physical organisation of the world around us. The techniques of spatial analysis provide a powerful means for the assembly and interpretation of evidence, and thus to address critical questions about issues such as crime and deprivation, immigration and demographic restructuring, retailing activity and employment change, resource management and environmental improvement. Many of these issues are equally important to academic research as they are to policy makers and Applied Spatial Analysis and Policy aims to close the gap between these two perspectives by providing a forum for discussion of applied research in a range of different contexts
Topical and interdisciplinaryIncreasingly government organisations, administrative agencies and private businesses are requiring research to support their ‘evidence-based’ strategies or policies. Geographical location is critical in much of this work which extends across a wide range of disciplines including demography, actuarial sciences, statistics, public sector planning, business planning, economics, epidemiology, sociology, social policy, health research, environmental management.
FocusApplied Spatial Analysis and Policy will draw on applied research from diverse problem domains, such as transport, policing, education, health, environment and leisure, in different international contexts. The journal will therefore provide insights into the variations in phenomena that exist across space, it will provide evidence for comparative policy analysis between domains and between locations, and stimulate ideas about the translation of spatial analysis methods and techniques across varied policy contexts. It is essential to know how to measure, monitor and understand spatial distributions, many of which have implications for those with responsibility to plan and enhance the society and the environment in which we all exist.
Readership and Editorial BoardAs a journal focused on applications of methods of spatial analysis, Applied Spatial Analysis and Policy will be of interest to scholars and students in a wide range of academic fields, to practitioners in government and administrative agencies and to consultants in private sector organisations. The Editorial Board reflects the international and multidisciplinary nature of the journal.
