%X It is a political and economic problem to place decentralized services in territories with scattered populations such Asturias (Spain). On the basis of applied research, we propose a method to select possible sites; furthermore, we carefully consider the population and the travel time of users. A GIS programme is used for calculations. Besides, another application of the method is proposed for the analysis of pedestrians¡¯ mobility.
