Which method was used by H.L. Green to demarcate the City Regions of New York and Boston cities of the United States?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
In his 1955 study of the hinterland boundaries between New York City and Boston in southern New England, Howard L. Green mapped seven functional indicators of urban influence and superimposed those individual boundaries to derive a composite median line. In regional-planning classifications of city-region delimitation, this empirical map-superimposition technique is classified under the 'Qualitative' method, in contrast to mathematical gravity or graph models.
