Local Correlation, Spatial Inequalities, Geographically Weighted
Regression and Other Tools
Description
Provides researchers and educators with easy-to-learn user friendly tools for calculating
key spatial statistics and to apply simple as well as advanced methods of spatial analysis in real data.
These include: Local Pearson and Geographically Weighted Pearson Correlation Coefficients,
Spatial Inequality Measures (Gini, Spatial Gini, LQ, Focal LQ), Spatial Autocorrelation
(Global and Local Moran's I), several Geographically Weighted Regression techniques and other
Spatial Analysis tools (other geographically weighted statistics). This package also contains functions for
measuring the significance of each statistic calculated, mainly based on Monte Carlo simulations.
