Spatial statistics has been widely used in many environmental studies. This book is a collection of recent studies on applying spatial statistics in subjects such as demography, transportation, precision agriculture and ecology. Different subjects require different aspects of spatial statistics. In addition to quantitative statements from statistics and tests, visualization in forms of maps, drawings, and images are provided to illustrate the relationship between data and locations. This book will be valuable to researchers who are interested in applying statistics to spatial data, as well as graduate students who know statistics and want to explore how it can be applied to spatial data. With the processing part being simplified to several mouse clicks by commercial software, one should pay more attention to justification of using spatial statistics, as well as interpretation and assessment of the results. GIScience proves to be a useful tool in visualization of spatial data, and such useful technology should be utilized, as part, for the interpretation and assessment of the results.

We began writing this book in parallel with developing software for handling and analysing spatial data withR (R Development Core Team, 2008). - though the book is now complete, software development will continue, in the R community fashion, of rich and satisfying interaction with users around the world, of rapid releases to resolve problems, and of the usual joys and frust- tions of getting things done. There is little doubt that without pressure from users, the development ofR would not have reached its present scale, and the same applies to analysing spatial data analysis withR. It would, however, not be su?cient to describe the development of the R project mainly in terms of narrowly de?ned utility. In addition to being a communityprojectconcernedwiththedevelopmentofworld-classdataana- sis software implementations, it promotes speci?c choices with regard to how data analysis is carried out.R is open source not only because open source software development, including the dynamics of broad and inclusive user and developer communities, is arguably an attractive and successful development model.

While mapped data provide a common ground for discussions between the public, the media, regulatory agencies, and public health researchers, the analysis of spatially referenced data has experienced a phenomenal growth over the last two decades, thanks in part to the development of geographical information systems (GISs). This is the first thorough overview to integrate spatial statistics with data management and the display capabilities of GIS. It describes methods for assessing the likelihood of observed patterns and quantifying the link between exposures and outcomes in spatially correlated data. This introductory text is designed to serve as both an introduction for the novice and a reference for practitioners in the field Requires only minimal background in public health and only some knowledge of statistics through multiple regression Touches upon some advanced topics, such as random effects, hierarchical models and spatial point processes, but does not require prior exposure Includes lavish use of figures/illustrations throughout the volume as well as analyses of several data sets (in the form of "data breaks") Exercises based on data analyses reinforce concepts

Spatial statistics are useful in subjects as diverse as climatology, ecology, economics, environmental and earth sciences, epidemiology, image analysis and more. This book covers the best-known spatial models for three types of spatial data: geostatistical data (stationarity, intrinsic models, variograms, spatial regression and space-time models), areal data (Gibbs-Markov fields and spatial auto-regression) and point pattern data (Poisson, Cox, Gibbs and Markov point processes). The level is relatively advanced, and the presentation concise but complete. The most important statistical methods and their asymptotic properties are described, including estimation in geostatistics, autocorrelation and second-order statistics, maximum likelihood methods, approximate inference using the pseudo-likelihood or Monte-Carlo simulations, statistics for point processes and Bayesian hierarchical models. A chapter is devoted to Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation (Gibbs sampler, Metropolis-Hastings algorithms and exact simulation). A large number of real examples are studied with R, and each chapter ends with a set of theoretical and applied exercises. While a foundation in probability and mathematical statistics is assumed, three appendices introduce some necessary background. The book is accessible to senior undergraduate students with a solid math background and Ph.D. students in statistics. Furthermore, experienced statisticians and researchers in the above-mentioned fields will find the book valuable as a mathematically sound reference. This book is the English translation of Modélisation et Statistique Spatiales published by Springer in the series Mathématiques & Applications, a series established by Société de Mathématiques Appliquées et Industrielles (SMAI).

The Handbook is written for academics, researchers, practitioners and advanced graduate students. It has been designed to be read by those new or starting out in the field of spatial analysis as well as by those who are already familiar with the field. The chapters have been written in such a way that readers who are new to the field will gain important overview and insight. At the same time, those readers who are already practitioners in the field will gain through the advanced and/or updated tools and new materials and state-of-the-art developments included. This volume provides an accounting of the diversity of current and emergent approaches, not available elsewhere despite the many excellent journals and te- books that exist. Most of the chapters are original, some few are reprints from the Journal of Geographical Systems, Geographical Analysis, The Review of Regional Studies and Letters of Spatial and Resource Sciences. We let our contributors - velop, from their particular perspective and insights, their own strategies for m- ping the part of terrain for which they were responsible. As the chapters were submitted, we became the first consumers of the project we had initiated. We gained from depth, breadth and distinctiveness of our contributors’ insights and, in particular, the presence of links between them.

« The quadtree and octree are hierarchical data structures used to represent spatial data. This book shows how these spatial data structures can be applied in computer graphics, image processing, geographic information systems (GIS), and other domains. It illustrates the representation of region data, in particular, both in two dimensions with quadtrees and in three dimensions with octrees. The advantage of hierarchical data structures is their ability to focus on interesting subsets of the data, resulting in more efficient representation and faster execution. Thus, they are particularly convenient for performing set operations. Even where other data structures might perform as efficiently, hierarchical data structures are often preferred for their conceptual clarity and ease of implementation. The author begins with a general introduction to spatial data structures. He continues with explanations of how to convert between quadtrees and other representations, as well as applications such as geometric property computation, image transformations, ray tracing, and image compression. The approach is algorithmic. Each chapter after the introduction contains at least one detailed algorithm, written in pseudo code, to illustrate an application. Each critical step in these algorithms is described with a liberal use of examples. Each chapter also includes a large number of exercices, with solutions provided for many. The book focuses on implementation techniques and the uses of spatial data structures. Readers desiring a more complete introduction to these representations, including fundamental concepts, basic techniques, and a broad range of possible uses, should refer to another book by the same author, The design and analysis of spatial data structures. The introductory material in Applications of spatial data structures makes the book self-contained. Each book contains an extensive bibliography, and the books are cross-referenced. »--Quatrième de couverture.
