Abstract
Most land uses and transportation routes exist not for their own sake, but because they are means for the accomplishment of some desired activity. Whereas movements are the key component of transportation planning, activities are fundamental to land use planning and constitute the link between the city and the people. Study of activity patterns which are recurrent in time and space may ultimately yield better theoretical explanations for the urbanist and improved predictive tools for the planner. Some problems and potentialities of activity analysis are explored using data from interviews in two census tracts of a small city.Keywords
