Abstract

To be effective, territorial development policies must rely on information collected at a proper spatial scale. This commentary compares functional and administrative geographies. We go beyond metropolitan areas and map functional areas across the entire national territory of Spain. These functional areas are delineated using commuting flows based on mobile positioning data. The results obtained revealed the existence of a substantial number of functional areas that do not belong to one sole region. This indicates that there is a discrepancy between the socioeconomic reality and the administrative areas employed for territorial development policy purposes. Functional areas could be particularly useful to address policy challenges in issues like labor market functioning, transport planning, housing, or public service provision.
使用移动定位数据绘制西班牙的功能区域
为了有效,领土发展政策必须依赖于在适当的空间尺度上收集的信息。这篇评注比较了功能地理和行政地理。我们超越了大都市地区,绘制了西班牙全国范围内的功能区地图。这些功能区是利用基于移动定位数据的通勤流划定的。所获得的结果揭示了存在大量不属于一个单一区域的功能区。这表明社会经济现实与用于领土发展政策目的的行政区域之间存在差异。功能区对于解决劳动力市场运作、交通规划、住房或公共服务提供等问题的政策挑战尤其有用。
