By using methods of univariate spatial autocorrelation, hotspot analysis and multivariate regression the location and densities of Indigenous residents is hereby reviewed from census data collected in 2011. Residential integration is a keystone of social inclusion theory (Zenk et al. 2005). By viewing and manipulating spatial data on the residential location of Indigenous Australians, it is hoped that insight can be gained on the location of significantly high or low distributions of indigenous residents. The null hypothesis of which, follows that Indigenous communities are distributed equally to that of the wider population of South Australia. This in turn, amongst many other factors, results in a lack of social integration and the ironic alienation of a uniquely Australian culture.

Many people emigrate from rural areas in a search of the security, opportunity and connectivity that cities can provide. In many cases, these new arrivals live in unplanned neighbourhoods at the city's fringe to avoid paying exorbitant rental prices in fast-growing economies. Mongolia's capital, Ulaanbaatar in Central Asia has many such neighbourhoods, where they are known as Ger Districts. These neighbourhoods expansion and morphing under constant change makes the management of equal distribution difficult for civil engineering, population studies, and quality of public services. It is in light of this that remote sensing can prove a valuable tool in the provision of Ger Districts so that their growth and morphology can be monitored and planned for over time.
