Abstract
- This article reports on work in progress on the implementation of functions for spatial statistical analysis, in particular of lattice/area data in the language environment. The underlying spatial weights matrix classes, as well as methods for deriving them from data from commonly used geographical information systems are presented, handled using other contributed packages. Since the initial release of some functions in 2001, and the release of the spdep package in 2002, experience has been gained in the use of various functions. The topics covered are the ingestion of positional data, exploratory data analysis of positional, attribute, and neighborhood data, and hypothesis testing of autocorrelation for univariate data. It also provides information about community building in using for analyzing spatial data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
