the mean center or as sometimes also called as mean point, is the
simplest measure of the centre of a population distribution. It is
similar to the rithmetic mean of a linear distribution and is worked out
very much in the same way. For the lavation of mean centre on a map
showing distribution of points, it is necessary to device some way of
quantifying the location of each of those points . This is done by
calculating the coordinates of each point according to an arbitrary
system. Geographers are familiar to the measurement of location in terms
of latitude and longitude. The first step, therefore involves
superimposing a grid system on the map where the vertical and horizontal
exes are orthogonal and are drawn at equal spacing best settlement geography buy now
