Spatial data analysis theory and practice
This book is about methods for analysing quantitative spatial data. 'Spatial' means each item of data has a geographical reference so we know where each case occurs on a map. This spatial indexing is important because it carries information that is relevant to the analysis of the data. The book is aimed at those studying or researching in the social, economic and environmental sciences. It details important elements of the methodology of spatial data analysis, emphasizes the ideas underlying thismethodology and discusses applications. The purpose is to provide the reader with a coherent overview of the field as well as a critical appreciation of it.
