Abstract: Tinbergen-Bos Systems (TBS) operationalise LÃsch's general spatial economic equilibrium model in terms of "centers" (clusters of activities) and "systems" (combinations of centers). The initial specifications are generalised to a non-discrete metric, and a method is derived to solve the resulting location-allocation problem by linear programming. Applications are presented, the conclusion being that the way is paved to handle large quasi-dynamic TBS, allowing to study the evolution of "economic landscapes".
