Abstract
This paper presents a study which explored a range of techniques for analysing the spatial relationship between population density and geographical features of interest at a global scale. Three categories of spatial analysis techniques were explored: traditional methods, spatial autocorrelation statistics and regression analysis. The correlation between the spatial distribution of Australian cinema screens and a global gridded population density dataset were used as the case study for the analysis.
