This textbook integrates GIS, spatial analysis, and computational methods for solving real-world problems in various policy-relevant social science applications. Thoroughly updated, the third edition showcases the best practices of computational spatial social science and includes numerous case studies with step-by-step instructions in ArcGIS Pro and open-source platform KNIME. Readers sharpen their GIS skills by applying GIS techniques in detecting crime hotspots, measuring accessibility of primary care physicians, forecasting the impact of hospital closures on local community, or siting the best locations for business. Google launched the Google Maps API, a jаvascript API, to allow customization of online maps in 2005. The Google Maps API enables one to estimate the travel time without reloading the web page or displaying portions of the map. An earlier version of the Python program was developed to use the Google Maps API for computing an OD travel time matrix.
