Spatial Analysis (2014) 7:1–4 DOI 10.1007/s12061-014-9100-8 Editorial: Internal Migration - Spatial Analysis and Policy John Stillwell Received: 2 January 2014 /Accepted: 3 January 2014 / Published online: 12 January 2014 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014 This special issue of themed papers has its origins in a set presentations that were delivered at an International Geographical Union (IGU) conference on Applied GIS and Spatial Modelling hosted by the Centre for Spatial Analysis and Policy, School of Geography at University of Leeds in June 2013 and held at the Hilton Hotel in the city centre. The issue contains two papers that are essentially methodological in their focus, two papers providing empirical analyses of temporal trends and spatial patterns of relatively long-distance migration in two very different parts of the world, and one paper that considers the relationship between inter-regional migration and selected explanatory variables and has a policy orientation.
