Mapping Museums' Catchment Areas: A Tool for Understanding Museum Visitorship

January 1, 1997 | Exhibitions
In this paper, Volker Kirchberg of the University of Lueneburg and Basica Research Institute analyses catchment areas to better understand museums' greater impacts. The author defines these areas as not only a function of distance of the the potential visitors' residence to the venue but also a function of socio-demographic structures of residential areas.
