这篇评论首先承认地理人口学作为应用地理学活动的一个重要领域的成功。然而，它随后发展的概念和计算基础的方法的批评，并认为，数据供应和在线通信的变化，目前的做法已经过时。它提出了一个新的视角的元素，需要：在规格的变化，估计和测试的在线地理人口系统;通过咨询的做法，从在线民俗;自动生成笔肖像;和'在飞'可视化的地理人口分类的结果。
This review begins by acknowledging the success of geodemographics as an important area of activity in applied geography. However, it then develops a critique of the conceptual and computational underpinnings of the approach, and argues that changes in data supply and online communication have rendered current practices obsolete. It presents elements of a new perspective, entailing: changes in the specification, estimation and testing of online geodemographic systems; adoption of consultative practices from online folksonomies; automated generation of pen portraits; and ‘on the fly’ visualisation of the outcome of geodemographic classifications.
