Abstract
This paper examines the spatial nature of public policy by applying spatial concepts and multiscalar methodological applications embedded within GIS and geovisualization to explore the complex spaces surrounding public policy implementation and evaluation. The objective of this research is to examine the spatial components integral to policy formation, implementation, and evaluation using case studies that explore the role of geography in same space, different places in a public policy context.
