Project Information: Regional Religious System (RRS) is a new concept we developed to capture the regional and local characteristics of Chinese religion in spatial terms. Based on our BGIS data, we have experimented to define the concept and method of RRS. The concept and method developed in this project will be used in other areas and projects in the future. https://cbs.arizona.edu/regional-religious-system-rrs
