Transport geography

the finding that human travel distances follow a power law with scale-free waiting times, so travel resembles an anomalous diffusion process.

In transport geography, scaling laws of human travel refers to the finding that human travel distances follow a power law with scale-free waiting times, so travel resembles an anomalous diffusion process. This meaning comes from Brockmann (2006) in Nature.[1]
