Abstract

This article presents research results on spatial centralities, through the lens of commercial use. The concept of centrality and location of commercial activities are considered logics of existential interdependence, or are defined as an attribute that provides concentration of people, benefits and information (Vargas, 2000). The research uses Kernel Density as a means of calculating estimates, starting from the geometric abstraction of the point and thus, associating the locations based on density values ​​of commercial activity. The spatial data of two commercial establishments are provided by National Address Register for Statistics from 2022 (IBGE, 2024) and are taken as the object or municipality of Cariacica, Brazil. The main results of the density shown in the association of commercial use with the road structure; It analyzes the spatial patterns by a certain set of point data and highlights line-point as a fundamental variable relationship, in search of understanding location patterns.
