The approach allows one to build the spatial information distribution of a given neural response. The method is applied to the investigation of putative differences in the coding of position in hippocampus and lateral septum.16 pages, 4 figures, to be published in Neural ComputationDisordered Systems and Neural NetworksNeurons and CognitionMeasuring information spatial densitiestext
