determine a location for a distribution centre serving three urban centres. They are: 1. Guelph, population 1,200, at grid location (8.8, 2.8); 2. Cambridge, population 1,400, at grid location (3.5, 8.1); and 3. Kitchener, population 900, at grid location (7.8, 6.2) It is determined that planners would prefer to have the depot in either Cambridge or Kitchener (although it will serve all three centres). Using metropolitan distances, determine the load-distance scores for both Cambridge and Kitchener and make a recommendation as to which town should have the depot. determine a location for a distribution centre serving three urban centres.
