Discrepancies in the total population and commuter distribution related to partition aggregation behavior. (a) The total number of commuters NG in ABS data for networks of varied size. Each point corresponds to a network between SA1 partitions and a different scale of POW partition (national, state, SA4, SA3, SA2, DZN). (b) The discrepancy between commuter numbers, Δwij, on each edge w(EAB, A) and w(EAB, B) plotted against w(EAB, B). (c) The frequency distribution as a function of edge weight for edges present in the ABS-provided SA2 → SA2 network (B) but not the aggregated SA1 → DZN network (A).
