PROJECT REPORT

Project Motivation

As part of our module, Geographic Information Systems for Urban Planning, we are collaborating with an international food chain to analyse 15 trade areas located in Taiwan's Kaohsiung and Ping Tung region as shown in the image below. The international food chain currently uses manual methods of delineating their trade area which is largely time consuming. Therefore we aim to propose new and faster methods using QGIS to delineate the trade area. We will also be analysing the points of interest (POI) within each trade area to determine the correlation between the POIs and sales revenue. To do so, we will be using simple and multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this project will provide the international food chain with the necessary geographic data analysis to make an informed decision regarding their sales and marketing strategy.
