Key Points 

Model Concept

Concept

Sector Model

  •  The sector model, also known as the Hoyt model, is a model of urban land use proposed in 1939 by land economist Homer Hoyt.
  • It is a modification of the concentric zone model of city development.
  • The benefits of the application of this model include the fact it allows for an outward progression of growth.
  • Model of the internal structure of cities in which social groups are arranged around a series of sectors or wedges radiating from CBD

Concentric Zone Model

  • The concentric zone model of the urban structure was proposed by E. W. Burgess in 1924 and modified in 1927
  • Burgess was a sociologist
  • The internal structure of Chicago was mapped to present the model
  • Ecological theory of city structure
  • Model of the internal structure of cities in which social groups are spatially arranged in a series of rings

Bid-Rent theory

  •  In 1960 William Alonso completed his dissertation which extended the von Thünen model to urban land uses.
  • His model gives land use, rent, the intensity of land use, population, and employment as a function of distance to the CBD of the city as a solution of an economic equilibrium for the market for space.

Central Business District (CBD)

  • The central business district, referred to frequently by its abbreviation, CBD, is a key term in planning because of its importance to so many intersecting issues of the city—the success of the local and regional economy, the movement of goods and people, the life and culture of cities, and more.

Hence, the correct matching is (a) - 4, (b) - 1, (c) - 3, (d) - 2
