Not directly a GIS question, but as a spatially-enabled group, I'm hoping someone here can offer some pointers.
I have a set of points with a known density. If I double the density, will I increase the distance incurred to travel to all the points? What will be the mathematical relationship between average distance between points (or the sum thereof) and their density?
Of course I realize there are a lot of factors, not least of which will be the pattern of distribution and the pattern of road networks, but can I generalize in some fashion?
My boss has thrown this at me as he wishes to quote on a maintenance contract and wants to know: if the # of units in a given area is doubled, how will it affect our costs.
Thanks in advance
Rick
