Secured parking areas are wanted for vehicles carrying these materials to comply with the legal requirements concerning driving and resting times. In our work, we analyze this need by applying a location model supported with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to study the coverage of this type of areas in Spain.application/pdfenMaximal covering location modelTransport of dangerous goodsGeographic information systemAnalysis of the need for a network of service/resting areas especially adapted to the transport of dangerous goodsjournal articlerestricted access
