ETI | Energy Technologies Institute. The Geography of Transport Systems. The mobility of people, freight and information is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, distributing consumption goods, or supplying energy. Each movement has a purpose, an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a destination. Transport systems are the support and driver of this mobility and are composed of infrastructures, modes and terminals. This system enables the socio-economic life of individuals, institutions and corporations. Understanding how mobility is linked with geography is main the purpose of this textbook. The third edition of The Geography of transport systems maintains the overall structure of its predecessors, with chapters dealing with specific conceptual dimensions and methodologies, but the contents have been revised and updated. Like the previous two editions, the third edition is articulated along two core approaches to transport geography, one conceptual and the other methodological.
