Abstracts

EN

The article presents a comparison made with reference to three similarity measures and Minkowski measures, namely urban measure, the Euclidean measure and Chebyshev measure, as well as the variants of the Euclidean measure and square of the Euclidean measure. Their properties were compared and synthetic measures were created on this basis. Infrastructural-technical variables referring to Polish counties were used as data in the creation of measures.
