Segregation Analyzer: a C#.Net application for calculating residential segregation indices

Segregation indices are today well known and increasingly used in urban studies. However, in the absence of specialized computer tools, calculating segregation indices soon becomes a long and complicated process. The odd free applications designed to calculate indices are implemented in geographic i...

The odd free applications designed to calculate indices are implemented in geographic information systems (ArcInfo, ArcView and MapInfo).
