In the following example a florist is looking for a site to locate a new outlet.
The Statistical Local Area of Booroondara Camberwell has been chosen to ascertain if the site on Toorak Rd would be suitable. The owner of the florist shop has already conducted a number of analyses and has determined that;
- a new site needs to be close to a hospital as many visitors to hospitals take flowers
- a new site should be close to a church as there is a large potential market in the supply of flowers for weddings and funerals, and
- in addition to the above, an ideal site should have good access to major roads for fast flower deliveries.
In order to undertake this analysis the florist selected the SLA of Booroondara Camberwell. She then overlaid the layer of street data and followed this by selecting hospitals and churches. The data variable depicting the number of people who earned more than $1000 a week was also chosen to allow the florist to make an assessment of the income levels in the area.
